Hello Thomas, thanks for the response.

I mainly need this for bounce of bad email address to redirect. I know the
reply-to field is populated with the correct email address from the
developers script.

The from address is noreply because if I put in the real FROM address ex:
joe@pillar.com would be on another clients server hosting the domain, the
messages get rejected because the server it's coming from ex:
sender.comdoesn't host or match the domain when it does a call-back.

Thanks, Jack
