How to set [ Reply-To ] header on SMTP emails

[tentoka2]

I am using LimeSurvey (an online survey platform), which I have configured to send out confirmation emails to users who have filled out a questionnaire. My first choice would have been to spoof the From address to my personal email, because that's where I want any replies to go (and, in fact, that's the only address I would want the users to know about). As I have found out from reading previous threads, though, x10hosting prevents From spoofing by discarding such emails silently. That's disappointing, and it also means that I now have to find a way to at least set Reply-To to my main email address, but the LimeSurvey email configuration panel doesn't have that option. Any suggestions on how this can be done?

Thanks!

create a mailbox for (example) surveys@domain.tld and then create a forward for surveys@domain.tld to my.email@gmail.com

at URL [ https://manual.limesurvey.org/Survey_settings#General ] I 'see'...
==>
#10 - Admin email: This is the email address of the administrator (as above) and is used as the 'reply to:' address on any emails sent. You can also enter several email addresses separated with a semicolon - that way survey administrator notifications are sent to more than one person. (Example: "firstaddress@test.com;secondaddress@test.com")

then create a forward for surveys@domain.tld to my.email@gmail.com

both address's would still show in the header of the Email

Thanks very much for looking this up, and yes, the manual does say that, but in actual fact, LimeSurvey seems to use "Admin email" as the From field, not Reply-To, and so, if I use my personal email there, the sending fails. When I put in the hosting domain's email address, it starts working again. By the looks of it, the manual is incorrect...

I have, in fact, set up forwarding to my personal address, and it'll do as a workaround for now, but I'd really like to find a way to either spoof the From field or at least use Reply-To...
