[Portfolio] Fwd: [Sakai Jira] Created: (SAK-15862) Portfolio Share notification should set reply-to in email

[Beth Kirschner]

There was a similar discussion with the Email Archive tool, which has  
an "Options" page where a user can select to Set the reply to address  
to... "The email archive" or "Leave as the original sender". Is this  
perhaps what you were thinking of? There's not a similar 'Options'  
page for the portfolio tool, and with our recent work to simplify the  
user-interface, I'd rather not create one.

So we could create a sakai.properties option which defines whether to  
set the 'reply-to' header to the postmaster, the portfolio owner, or  
possibly someone else? Would anyone be interested in this option if it  
were provided? Our UM users would prefer the reply-to being set to the  
portfolio owner, since they explicitly initiate the share/notify  
request themselves.
