I have the same issue. I discovered that the main reason the smtp mail gets
bounced is because the email address and domain of the "sent mail" is on a
private domain "ie: something.local" Is yours the same? I am also trying to
find a way to resolve this particular scenario. My first attempt was to add
the ISP's email address to my exchange users email addresses and make it the
default. That took care of the sending problem, but it somehow disabled the
ability for the pop3 connector to retrieve and deliver properly. Anybody
have anything to offer on this????
