--- Comment #1 from Larry Baerveldt <larry at bywatersolutions.com> ---
I can provide some background on this.

The Reply-to and Return-Path addresses were added to combat a problem with
emails being rejected or flagged as spam if the library used an email address
with a different domain than that of the Koha server. (The
KohaAdminEmailAddress, or library Email address if set, is what shows up in the
'From' header, and is what is checked by many spam filters, and for checking
SPF records.)

This is especially important for sites like ours, where the library wants to
use one of their own addresses for email, and be able to get replies and
bouncebacks, but their Koha installation is hosted on a server in the vendor's
domain. So we might use something like 'no_reply at site.servername.com' in the
KohaAdminEmailAddress or the branchemail, so the messages will get delivered,
and not rejected as spam.

However, print notices are hard coded to be sent to either the branchemail or
the KohaAdminEmailAddress. So the 'gotcha' is you need to use an address in the
same domain as the server to avoid rejects, but if you do, then the library may
not be able to get their print notices email.

This bug requests the option to choose one of the other addresses (Reply-to or
Return-path) as the place to send the print notices emails.
