[LUG] Email return-path on error

 

G'day all,

Got a simple question, that I thought I knew the answer to!

I send an email from user 'account@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx' to user  
a.person@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The mail bounces besause a.person entered their email in incorrectly.

Mail bounces back to 'account@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx'

I want all error email to go to customer.service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

But what ever I do it comes back to the sender, so every so often we  
have to clear out emails, (31000 last time, hmm, have not looked for a  
while!)

We use a .forward or similar since the sending user is generic but the  
return path is specific.
We have Reply-To: and that works fine.
(I did think there was as an Error-To: but it seems not.
