[Kolab-devel] [issue576] header check too strict --> lost mails

[Martin Konold]

New submission from Martin Konold <martin.konold at erfrakon.de>:

I just upgraded Kolab 2 server on our test server and noticed that the from 
header check is too strict disallowing mails from cron running on localhost to 
the user root. 
 
This problem leads to lost mails.
