meillo@0 49 #
meillo@0 50 # the return path is address where delivery failure messages will go
meillo@0 51 # to, and this address will be checked by many MTAs in the outside
meillo@0 52 # world, so it should be valid. It canNOT contain a real name:
meillo@0 53 # 'miller@foo.com' is a valid return path, but 'Charlie Miller <miller@foo.com>' is NOT.
meillo@0 54 #
meillo@0 55 # The From: address is the address the recipient sees, and where
meillo@0 56 # replies will go to (if you do not set a Reply-to header). In most
meillo@0 57 # cases it corresponds to the return path, but this is not
meillo@0 58 # required. It CAN have a real name, both examples for Charlie above
meillo@0 59 # are correct, and it is more pretty to include a real name.

meillo@0 62 # if we send the mail directly, we can set any valid address here,
