 * Hi,
 * How can I customize “Return-Path:” for notifications sended from formidableforms?
 * Right now im using Reply-to but gmail filters doesnt seems to recognize this 
   header… only working with “Return-Path:”.
 * Also I tried to hardcode Return-Path: on phpmailer_init but doesnt achieve nothing
   yet…. any advice on how to use reply-to header for customizing Return-Path?
 * Maybe you have some function/hook to achieve this?
 * Regards

 * Hi [@jorgitobg](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jorgitobg/),
 * We’ve seen this issue pop up with Gmail a couple of times.
 * There are a couple of scenarios where the new Gmail interface will ignore the
   reply-to address in the email header.
 * It seems that if the From and To addresses are the same, this issue pops up.
   
   Also if the From address is saved as a Gmail sending account.
 * Does this sound like what you’re running into?

 * Hi [@njones35](https://wordpress.org/support/users/njones35/), thanks for your
   answer!
 * The From and To addresses are not the same, only the same domain. So…. if I need
   to send the notification to my domain, then: From:noreply@domain.com To:info@domain.
   com… ReplyTo:customer@domain2.com. Still Gmail ignoring reply-to headers, only
   works with return-path header.
 * After many hours debugging I get return-path customized on phpmailer_init by 
   extracting the email I want from email body and sending to $phpmailer->Sender.
 * Also I see formidableforms send the subject on base64, why?
 * Regards
