Aha! A reason why my mail may not be getting through to AOL!

Email, Mutt Add comments

I use mutt as my e-mail reader, with a patch I wrote that makes mutt use libESMTP to send mail. This ensures that my e-mail goes through Yahoo’s e-mail servers, the proper behavior for my Yahoo account. However, it seems that there is a bug somewhere, as my e-mail’s envelope From address is being set to MAILER-DAEMON. I’m not sure if it is doing this for all e-mails, or on all e-mail servers, but I wouldn’t be surprised if this is why my e-mail to AOL addresses isn’t getting through.
