Reply-Adress for Notifications not working as supposed

Hi,

by configuring gitlab_rails['gitlab_email_from'] in omnibus installer most user would suppose, that this value is also used as reply-Adress

in notify.rb:

default from: Proc.new { default_sender_address.format } default reply_to: "noreply@#{Gitlab.config.gitlab.host}"

e.g. I configure gitlab-noreply@mycompany.com as email_from value, I suppose, that this will be the reply_to adress and not noreply@gitlab.mycompany.com

As I don't know ruby, would anybody be so kind and fix this?

This is still the case in GitLab 7.12.0. Email_from seems to get ignored completely.

There are a number of configuration parameters:

gitlab_rails['gitlab_email_from'] = 'example@example.com'
gitlab_rails['gitlab_email_display_name'] = 'Example'
gitlab_rails['gitlab_email_reply_to'] = 'noreply@example.com'

Did you set these and run gitlab-ctl reconfigure?

Yes, thank you for the fast response. I have set 'gitlab_email_from' and 'gitlab_email_reply_to' to new values and did run reconfigure. However I left 'gitlab_email_display_name' with the value 'Example'.

You may have to run gitlab-ctl restart for the settings to take effect. Have you tried that already?

That seems to be the solution. Thank you for your suggestion!
