I think I've found a bug in the mailing lists for SmarterMail 5.5.3223 Enterprise.
I have a client who uses Inforad Enterprise network paging software to forward to a mailing list which contains all of their users SMTP email addresses. The message comes into the SmarterMail list email address, but only goes to the list moderator. It does not get distributed to the list. The paging software does not send a From address. I have this domain set to bypass spam checks and forward all messages. Is there anything hard coded in SmarterMail that says if there is no From address, don't forward it to the list?
Here is the SMTP and Delivery logs for two of the sessions with the addresses X'd out. One direct authenticated from the sending machine and one routed through another mail server. SmarterMail will not forward either message to any lists. But it will send to the list if I send to the same address using Outlook or the web interface.
This worked fine on the Merak 8.5 server I just migrated from. So, that's why it leads me to think that SmarterMail has something it is looking for to keep it from forwarding.
Anyone have any thoughts or a way around this?
