[ZendTo] Recipient Pickup Identification

Mon Nov 28 16:17:51 GMT 2016

Jules,
I'm on 4.12 and my NSSDropbox.php has the code you provide below, but I
still have the problem Dale mentioned.  If an employee at my firm
creates a drop off and the recipient has an auto-reply active on their
email, the email is sent to an "admin" account rather than the employee
who created the drop-off.  Looking at the headers of an email sent from
my zend.to install, the "From:" is the address defined in zendto.conf
and the "Reply-to:" is the user.  Is there something I am missing or how
do I make all replies to ZendTo notification emails go back to the user
who dropped off the file?  Or at least do this for users who are
employees of my company?

> Dale,

The answer to your question about the address the email appears to come
from may also imply that you have an old version of the "deliverEmail"
function in /opt/zendto/lib/NSSDropbox.php.
Find the definition of that function in that file (search for
"deliverEmail" and you should find a line saying something like
public function deliverEmail(
If your version has 5 parameters like the updated version I'm including
for you below, you can *probably* replace your version of that function
with this one. But **MAKE A BACKUP COPY OF THE FILE FIRST!!!** in case
it doesn't work.
Here's the current code for that function, if you choose to try
replacing your existing copy of that function:
---CODE STARTS HERE---
/*!

@function deliverEmail

Send the $content of an email message to (one or more) address(es) in

$toAddr.

*/

public function deliverEmail(

$toAddr,

$fromAddr,

$subject,

$content,

$headers = ""

)

{
// If it contains any characters outside 0x00-0x7f, then encode it

if (preg_match('/[^\x00-\x7f]/', $subject)) {

$subject =
"=?UTF-8?B?".base64_encode(html_entity_decode($subject))."?=";

}
if (preg_match('/[^\x00-\x7f]/', $fromAddr)) {

$fromAddr =
"=?UTF-8?B?".base64_encode(html_entity_decode($fromAddr))."?=";

}
if (preg_match('/[^\x00-\x7f]/', $this->_emailSenderAddr)) {

$sender =
"=?UTF-8?B?".base64_encode(html_entity_decode($this->_emailSenderAddr))."?=";

} else {

$sender = $this->_emailSenderAddr;

}

// Add the From: and Reply-To: headers if they have been supplied.

if ($fromAddr!="") {

$headers = sprintf("From: %s", $sender) . PHP_EOL .

sprintf("Reply-to: %s", $fromAddr) . PHP_EOL .

$headers;

}

// Add the MIME headrs for 8-bit UTF-8 encoding

$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0".PHP_EOL;

$headers .= "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8;
format=flowed".PHP_EOL;

$headers .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit".PHP_EOL;

return mail(

$toAddr,

$subject,

$content,

$headers // JKF Commented out for now due to security concerns ,

// JKF Commented out for now due to security concerns

// '-f "'.$fromAddr.'"'

);

}

---CODE ENDS HERE---
Do not put the "CODE STARTS HERE" or "CODE ENDS HERE" lines into your
NSSDropbox.php file.
You can run the command
php -l NSSDropbox.php
to check the syntax of what you have just pasted in.
There's a chance your email client (or my email client or the list
manager) may wrap the code above badly, thereby breaking it.
That version should make the recipient's email app have the sender's
address in the "From:" and "Reply-To:" headers, which I think is what
you are asking for.
BTW I am working on an update at the moment. The ZendTo code is done,
but needs some more testing.
The installer is getting the most work. I've got it done for RedHat and
CentOS versions 5, 6 and 7.
Ubuntu next.
I'm automating the whole thing, including all the PHP rebuilding,
SELinux support, firewall support, everything.
And you can just have it run whatever bits of the process you want to,
so no need to risk it damaging your carefully configured email setup or
anything like that.
But if you run it on a blank server you've just insta
lled RedHat/CentOS
on, it will do everything needed except preferences.php and
zendto.conf.
Cheers,
Jules.

Hi,Less sure about the second question, but the answer to the first one
can be found here:http://zend.to/preferences.phpYou need to amend
EmailSenderAddress to change the email account.  It comes from that
account always.  AFAIK you can't set it so that it comes from the user
who added the drop off.Cheers,Matthew MooreSenior Server Engineer and

all!I'm hoping that you can help me with two things.First, when an
internal sender drops off a file, the notification message to the
recipient doesn't show as coming from the sender.  It shows as coming
from the administrator account.  Where is this configured?  One of the
problems is that if there is a NDR or an out of the office email
returned, it comes to the administrator account, it does not go to the
internal person that dropped off the file.Secondly, looking at a dropoff
summary, where the information is listed on who picked up the file,
everything looks good with the exception of the Recipient.  It always
shows "%s" (sans quotes) instead of the name or email address of the
recipient that picked up the file.  I'm guessing that variable isn't
being filled in somewhere…I'm on version 4.01 and I'm hesitant to
upgrade as this works so beautifully (except for the two issues above
☺)Thanks!Dale[http://www.pattishall.com/imgs/pattishalllogo.jpg]Dale
