Hi - the bounce address is defined by the 'return-path' header.    Generally you cannot set the return-path header using WebDNA as the outgoing MTA (mail relay) will overwrite whatever you set with the 'from' address.

You can however set the 'return-path' when sending email using [shell] (on CentOS anyway), i.e.:

    [shell]/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -f custom-bounce-address@domain.com < path/to/email/filename[/shell]

the '-t' flag tells sendmail to pick up the to headers from the email text file, the '-f' flag tells sendmail not to overwrite the 'return-path' header, but use the specified one instead.   In an earlier email exchange Chris said he might consider adding an option to specify a custom 'return-path' when using WebDNA to send email.

OK, thanks for clarifying all this Tom!
