[SOLVED] Set 'From' field of email for testing

[Rick]

Hi,

I want to test some filters which check the From field of an email.
How can I set the From field ?

Thanks you.

I do it like this:

Make a new mail account somewhere (live, gmail,...).
Define filters on that address.
Mail from that address to your system.
Done.

Is this what you were looking for? You can probably modify the "From" address, but that just doesn't seem right.

Regards

No, i can't do like this because i would like to filter a domain :
ex : somone@otterhub.com

my filter check from field like this : .*otterhub.com
I want to check the domain of a customer

Same logic. I test my filters using my own emailaddress.

If this test regex hits what you want it to hit:

Code: Select all

.*@myowndomain.com

Then this will also work:

Code: Select all

.*@mycustomersdomain.com

The only reason this wouldn't work is if you're testing this directly on your production system in which case the solution would be setting up a test system
