I use Exim as my MTA. I use my laptop on a number of different networks
and via ppp.

When I send mail via ppp I sometimes find that my mail is bounced as the
mail is being sent directly through my machine (i.e. the source ip
address resolves against ppp-xxx.3com.telinco.net).

I have a standard exim setup, except that I use smtp auth to (I
thought!) always send mail through my isp.

Thanks for any help.
