I haven't received any replies to this post yet.
To simplify the problem I have stripped down my transport and hard-wired
several values. Since I can see that the router is behaving properly I'm
just going to include my test transport...
puremail_autoreply_transport:
driver = autoreply
text = "This is the autoreply body"
to = $sender_address
from = noreply@???
subject = "Autoreply subject"
Can anyone see anything wrong with this setup? If not, then how can I
troubleshoot the problem?
Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks. - John R. S.
