How to set reply-to when using Swiftmailer

Question

How can reply-to be set when using Swiftmailer. The docs mentioned the function setReplyTo() but without specific instructions on how to use it.

Any help will be appreciated.

It needs an address as specified in the docs: swiftmailer.org/docs/messages.html#the-structure-of-a-message - should work like return-path: swiftmailer.org/docs/… – Sovran

Answer 1

I can confirm that the setReplyTo method works the same way as (for example) the setCC method.

$message->setReplyTo(array(
  '[email protected]',
  '[email protected]' => 'Person 2 Name',
  '[email protected]',
  '[email protected]',
  '[email protected]' => 'Person 5 Name'
));

For those who experienced the same confusion as me, you are not able to run $recipients->setReplyTo() on a Swift_RecipientList but you are able to do so on the Swift_Message directly:

$recipients = new Swift_RecipientList;
// this is correct
$recipients->addTo('[email protected]');
// this method does not exist so this does not work
$recipients->addReplyTo('[email protected]');

$message = new Swift_Message($subject, $message, 'text/html');
// you can, however, add the reply-to here like this
$message->setReplyTo('[email protected]');
// and of course sending the e-mail like this with the reply to works
$swift->send($message, $recipients, '[email protected]');
