That's if they can understand the problem and provide the fix!

I've now got round this problem by adding a Sender: header which includes 
the domain from which I'm actually sending the message.

The From: header can be in a different domain such as the organisation 
you're sending mail on behalf of.

So for example I might have:

From: Richard Porter <richard@minimarcos.org.uk>
Sender: ricp@minijem.plus.com

where I'm sending via relay.plus.net. The recipient would normally just 
see the From: address.

I'm currently struggling to get NetFetch working so I can send from 
multiple STMP servers. POPstar can only send to one.
