Blank Message ID: in sent emails

[DrByte]

If you prefer not to touch the class.phpmailer.php file, you could edit /includes/functions/functions_email.php , around line 336 (circa ZC v1.5.4),
inserting something like the highlighted code below:

      $ErrorInfo = '';
      $mail->Hostname = preg_replace('~(^https?://|\/.*$)~', '', defined('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER') ? HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER : HTTP_SERVER);
      $zco_notifier->notify('NOTIFY_EMAIL_READY_TO_SEND', array($mail), $mail);

If I read this correctly you wouldn't have the option to use the alias should anyone wish to use it ???
Then if a domain was already set domain.com (no alias) wouldn't you wind up with just com as the domain?
Or am I misreading the call: https?://|', (ignores things in the first section of the domain)
My PTR is mail.mydomain.com
I was actually looking at doing something similar to this,(if statements) but was afraid of breaking it completely. And then just editing one line in class.phpmailer.php made it seems so much easier.

No, the "s?" means "if there's an "s" include it in the pattern".

The whole line means: "using either HTTP_CATALOG SERVER (only available admin-side) or HTTP_SERVER, strip off the http:// or https:// from the front and anything after any other remaining '/' characters, leaving just the store's domain name", and pass that to phpMailer as the Hostname parameter.

Thanks for explaining that- it now makes sense to me.
I've been working with perl/cgi scripts for years and am finding it very difficult to grasp the php at times. It'd be alot easier if they weren't similar yet so different.
