In the example below we set the correct Return-Path header for sendmail. Normally sendmail will add the X-Authentication-Warning header when using the -f parameter, because the webserver user is probably not a member of the trusted users. To suppress this warning, you should add the web server user to the trusted users in your sendmail config file. <TABLE WIDTH="100%" BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0" CLASS="EXAMPLE" ><TR ><TD ><DIV CLASS="example" ><A NAME="AEN22560" ></A ><P ><B >Example 3.
