Troubleshooting issues with git-multimail: a FAQ
|
||
|
|
================================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Git is not using the right address in the From/To/Reply-To field
|
||
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
First, make sure that git-multimail actually uses what you think it is
|
||
|
|
using. A lot happens to your email (especially when posting to a
|
||
|
|
mailing-list) between the time `git_multimail.py` sends it and the
|
||
|
|
time it reaches your inbox.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A simple test (to do on a test repository, do not use in production as
|
||
|
|
it would disable email sending): change your post-receive hook to call
|
||
|
|
`git_multimail.py` with the `--stdout` option, and try to push to the
|
||
|
|
repository. You should see something like::
|
||
|
|
|

Note: this does not include the sender (Return-Path: header), as it is
|
||
|
|
not part of the message content but passed to the mailer. Some mailer
|
||
|
|
show the ``Sender:`` field instead of the ``From:`` field (for
|
||
|
|
example, Zimbra Webmail shows ``From: <sender-field> on behalf of
|
||
|
|
<from-field>``).
