Question

On drupal 6 i have the smtp module installed and i can’t figure out how to change the reply-to address.

In the “smtp.module” file I have added the lines:

$form['email_options']['smtp_replyto'] = array(
'#type'          => 'textfield',
'#title'         => t('Reply-to Email address'),
'#default_value' => variable_get('smtp_replyto', ''),
'#description'   => t('The reply-to E-mail address'),);

right after the line 181 where is the $form['email_options']['smtp_fromname'] decleration.

So this field shows up correctly in the administrative panel in the ‘SMTP authentication support’. I can’t figure out how to make the system take this address and replace it in the reply-to field of the email instead of the sender’s mail.

Any suggestion?

You can use hook_mail_alter: http://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/developer!hooks!core.php/function/hook_mail_alter/6 to change it before the mail was sended.
