do i need to fill ‘‘Send login details from this email address’‘ field under preferences and problem solved?

Yes, in theory. And if that doesn’t work you can add:

from="noreply@aknalaud24.ee"

in the <txp:com_connect> tag.

Re: com_connect - form and contact mailer

Oddness with reply_to (TXP 4.9 and com_connect 4.9-beta, PHP 8.4.latest and 8.5.0)

The <txp:com_connect /> contains: to="xxx[at]my_domain.tld" from="xxx[at]my_domain.tld".
The TXP preferences > Mail:

  • “SMTP envelope sender address” -> xxx[at]my_domain.tld
  • “Use enhanced mail features?“ -> Yes

The mail I receive has my xxx[at]my_domain.tld as the from address – that is expected, and the contacting person’s address in the reply_to field, also as expected.

But, this is a weirdness I think, the reply_to field also includes my from address.

Raw source of email is basically:

From: xxx@my_domain.tld
Reply-To:  xxx@my_domain.tld, someone.somewhere@mail.another-domain.tld

That is a little unexpected.

I am not sure when this started. Many contact emails we receive don’t warrant an answer. Those that do, most of the time we create a new mail and copy the necessary detail out of the received mail.

Re: com_connect - form and contact mailer

Hmmm, okay. While it’s not technically wrong I admit that’s probably not expected.

I’ll take a look and see if I can figure out why it’s working that way and try to make it only use one address.

Thanks for the report.

I might be wrong but think that it had to do with our discussions regarding postmaster, and how online email providers such as gmail no longer accepted phpmail. The solution was to create a 2 “Reply-To” emails. my@email.tld, subscriber@their_site.tld.

i added from=“noreply@aknalaud24.ee” to <txp:com_connect> tag, did not add it to ‘‘Send login details from this email address’‘ field. from email source i can see it now:

bcc. From: noreply@aknalaud24.ee
Reply-To: rrgusson@gmail.com

should be ok now. but it doesn’t, they are still not satisfied. here it is:

Sending emails was blocked due to incorrect sender address information.

In order for us to remove the restriction, please:

1. change the “header_from” address in the contact form settings to something like ……..@aknalaud24.ee

bloke, what they want now? is “@header_from@” somehow different from just “@from@” ?
