privacy ???
« on: June 09, 2015, 02:34:27 AM »
hello

since when does a webmail app , sends the originating ip of the user ??

the email source sender IP is technically the IP of the webserver/host of the mail system/roudcube

it is so ridiculous that i never checked it, recently , i checked a source of an email that i sent , it contains my ip not the one of the server

this goes against one of first reasons we use webmail based application than native email clients .

please clarify or fix even at the least : warn .

Did you enable http_received_header in the config? It's disabled by default.

Code: [Select]
// add a received header to outgoing mails containing the creators IP and hostname
$config['http_received_header'] = false;

// Whether or not to encrypt the IP address and the host name
// these could, in some circles, be considered as sensitive information;
// however, for the administrator, these could be invaluable help
// when tracking down issues.
$config['http_received_header_encrypt'] = false;
