Reply-To Header

As for now, wp-ses does ignore any header string, because it uses the simplest Amazon api call, that only uses to:
So Reply-to, cc, bcc are not handled.

I had similar requests, and it will be handled.

Should be ok with version 0.3.1 of the plugin.

You got a new field “Reply-To” you can set to
headers

and it will decode headers to extract the reply-to field.

Let me know how it works.

The plugin still does not appear to be reading the Reply-To header. I have the value of Reply-To set to headers in the options. I’m using Contact Form 7, and I’ve set Reply-To in the additional headers field of my form, but no Reply-To address comes through on the sent message.

Ok. I’ll look into it with Contact Form 7.

This is what I’m using to get the sender’s email address into the Reply-To field:

$headers = ‘Reply-To: ‘ . $contactEmail;

It’s working great. But is it possible to get the sender’s name into the Reply-To field as well as the email address? So that you get something like:

Reply-To: Joe Schmoe <[email protected]>

I can capture that info from my contact form and output it with the message body, but I can’t figure out any syntax that will get WP-SES to accept it as part of the Reply-To field.

Thanks for any help, Silvain!

(Maybe I shouldn’t have posted the above question here, since this thread’s marked “resolved”….)

The problem with contact form 7 is because of multiple lines in the header (From: + Reply-To:), and the regexp in WP-SES plugin doesn’t support this. But this can easily be fixed by modifying the regexp in wp-ses.php to:

preg_match('/^Reply-To: ([a-z0-9._%+-]+@[a-z0-9.-]+\.[a-z]{2,4})\b/imsU', $headers, $rto)

Notice the /imsU instead of only /i. Meaning that the regexp will be able to find the Reply-To email if $headers contains multiple lines.

As a sidenote, gmail will refuse to use the Reply-To header if a reverse DNS-lookup on the sending email doesn’t match the domain of that email (forgery detection).

Thanks for Tip, bhanson, I appreciate !
Will merge and update.

np, thanks for a great plugin! Keep up the good work.
