[rt-users] Adding CC / BCC to Ticket Reply causes 533 LIST error from sendmail

There is a HUGE warning in RT_Config.pm that you shouldn't edit it but
instead copy sections to the RT_SiteConfig.pm.

I'm still unsure of even what variable or section I should be editing.
Can you give me some pointers?

Kind regards,

Try RT_Config.pm, not RT_SiteConfig.pm.
