You should be able to set this up by following the examples in
ActionMailer.
But even if you figure it out - don''t do it. Even with good CAPTCHAs,
you''ll end up being a spammer magnet. You''ll also likely end
up
sending mails that aren''t likely to reach their recipients; if
foo-+RB1Aph5k6s@public.gmane.org tries to send an email to his buddy
baz-agGYaHWR3uI@public.gmane.org, here are
some issues:
- if bar.com defines an SPF record, your mail looks fake
- if bar.com DKIM signs its mail, your mail looks REALLY fake
- filters on frob.com that inspect the headers are going to be
confused
You may want to look into setting the envelope address to a real
address attached to your site, but it''s still ultimately going to be
messy.
