Syntax

Envariable

M2H_FROMFIELDS=field1:field2:...:fieldN

Element

<FROMFIELDS>
field1:field2:...:fieldN
</FROMFIELDS>

Command-line Option

-fromfields field1:field2:...:fieldN

Description

FROMFIELDS specify the message header fields MHonArc will search to determine who the author of a message is (which determines the value of the $FROM*$ resource variables). Each field will be checked in the ordered specified.

The value of the FROMFIELDS is a colon separated list of message header fields to check.

Default Setting

from:mail-reply-to:reply-to:return-path:apparently-from:sender:resent-sender

This resource is intended to reflect who the author is and not necessarily where replies of the message should be directed. This is why the From: field has higher precendence than the reply-to fields. However, if it is desired that it reflect where replies should be directed, then put mail-reply-to and reply-to first.

Resource Variables

N/A

Examples

None.
