Hey Todd, I don’t know, but I heard they are working on it.

I just tried it today. They still have the annoying “On Behalf Of” in there. When are they going to wise up?

Thanks seb for the link, are they insane? Ok, so they don’t listen to their customer and promise a long term solution, great, we are waiting for it since a year.

BTW, it came back on my emails too.

The “on behalf of” is back. It was not the fix we wanted. It was actually a bug. See below:

“Unfortunately, the “solution” you’re seeing here is a bit of a red herring — it’s actually just a bug introduced in a recent Gmail update…”

I am too waiting for this to finally move everything to gmail. But as far as I can see, gmail is still including the “send from gmail” into the message header and Outlook users still see “me on behalf of me2″…

Do we have to set options for it work as you say?

Last time I’ve checked the gmail devs were saying they would add some way for us to setup a custom smtp server to “send as” properly… But I can’t see anything of the sort.

Thanks in advance to confirm this. It would make my day!
