gmail smtp overwrites the sender
 

Dear All,

I would like to ask some help! I would like to use gmail smtp to send
my email from my domain which is sayusi.hu, and the email address is
sayusi.ando@sayusi.hu. Unfortunately, gmail smtp always overwrite the
sender email address. If I would like to subscribe for a mailing list
with this email address and the email is sent from my local machine
the respond always comes to my gmail address which used to
authenticate.

I have tried to set up my gmail account but doesn't matter what the
setup is the sender always will be overwrite. Do you know any solution
for this?

Thanks in advance!

András

Use a different SMTP server.

I don't believe there's any alternative.

Have you considered Postfix?

Stroller.

Doesn't the verification email always go to the "From:" address rather
than the "Sender:" address? Doesn't make sense otherwise, since the
address you want to subscribe to the list is the "From:" one, not the
"Sender:" one.

What do you mean when you say Postfix? If I use postfix and google
smtp is the relay always happens the same. The sender will be
overwritten.
Thanks God, yahoo mail doesn't do this! Now, I use yahoo smtp.
Unfortunately I can't use yahoo smtp as relay with postfix because
there is an issue with STARTLS and a hack is needed. Yesterday I was
to tired to reconfigure the whole. Mutt is able to use remote smtp so
I can send emails.

Indeed it does. AFAICT, there's nothing you can do about it.

That's how gmail works. It always forces the "from" address to be
your gmail account. IIRC, there's supposed to be a way to set the
"reply-to" address to a different address as long as that address is
one of the one's you have "authenticated".

I don't think there is a solution other than use a different SMTP
server.

See my email address? It's actually sent from Gmail. BUT, I have my own hosted website (with its own SMTP server).


Without your own SMTP server, Gmail will always send your email as "someone@gmail.com on behalf of someone@yourdomain.com".



After you have your own publicly accessible SMTP server, configure Gmail to send email via your SMTP server, then make the alternate account as your default account.


You can also configure your domain's SMTP server to not store your emails locally, but forward to your Gmail account. This way, everything will be handled through a single interface, i.e., Gmail's.

That's how gmail works. It always forces the "from" address to be
your gmail account.


It doesn't. It works OK here. I think the OP means the "Sender", not
the "From:" address.

Without your own SMTP server, Gmail will always send your email as
"someone@gmail.com <mailto:someone@gmail.com> on behalf of
someone@yourdomain.com <mailto:someone@yourdomain.com>".


That's also wrong. I use "From:" addresses that don't have any SMTP
associated with them. GMail only touches the "Sender:" address, not the
"From:" address.

Yes, header-wise, the "From:" is not changed.


But, client-side, especially on Thunderbird and Outlook/Outlook Express, the *display* From: will look like that.

There is no "display from". I use Thunderbird and it reports the "from"
correctly (that is, it says the mail did not come from GMail.) All mail
clients do that. They use the "From:" address. It's a standard
specified in an RFC.
