Hi, I found my problem after seeing a suggestion about a similar problem on the list. I needed to set the visible_name to mindspring.com for mindspring to accept the mail. This gives garbage headers, but the mail goes through. I am [EMAIL PROTECTED]; someone else is [EMAIL PROTECTED] The headers starting with "From " and "Return-Path:" refer to another user. Here is what the headers on my mail through the smarthost look like:
