Plesk 11 Postfix "Return-path" is different to Plesk 10 qmail value

Hey guys,

Just starting migration from an old Plesk 10 box across to a fresh Plesk 11 install on a new server.

The email headers coming from PHP script email on the old Plesk 10 box contain these values:

Code:
Return-Path: <[email protected]>
Received: (qmail 28909 invoked by uid 10008);
From: Customer Name <[email protected]>

But when this same PHP script sends through Postfix on the new Plesk 11 server the Return-Path is changed to the customers user account name like:

Code:
Return-Path: <[email protected]>
Received: by servername.com (Postfix, from userid 10008)
From: Customer Name <[email protected]>

This is causing issues with some bounce tracking PHP scripts and auto responders.

The PHP script is sending a Return-Path header when generating the email. It seems Qmail was setup to allow a script-defined return path but Postfix ignores it and users a server default value.

Any clues on how to change this? It's kinda halted this migration.

Cheers guys,
Dave
