    Header Details:

    Sender: <username@serverhostname>
    Return-Path: <username@serverhostname>
    Received-SPF: none (domain of serverhostname does not designate permitted sender hosts)

    I want the sender and Return-Path to be user@usersdomain.com. How to go about it.

    Hello,

    Could you elaborate on how you are sending the message? Is it through a PHP script? Are you sending via SMTP authentication?

    Thank you.

    Mails are being sent using PHP Script. One of my client is using Interspire mailing software and facing this problem.

    Hello,

    The default behavior of Exim is to use the cPanel username and hostname of the server to construct the envelope-sender address. If you can configure the mailer to use SMTP and authenticate with SMTP AUTH, this will set the correct "Return-Path" in the headers.

    Thank you.

    Incoming Email from certain senders is taking much longer than other emails?
