Re: Outgoing email blocked

I posted this on 30/09 but, unfortunately didn't get a reply.

<<Frank,
Sorry but I've lost you.

The situation is my Client has an account with BT which blocks email being
sent out using his email address fred@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx AND so that
recipients see emails as having been received from fred@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx?
The options seems to be -

1. Do nothing - having a discrete domain is not a good option
2. Change ISP - not a viable option
3. Subscribe to a relay server - will recipients see the email as coming
from fred@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
4. Any other way?

No.3 may be a runner but only if its satisfies both element of the
requirement.
No.4 who knows what anyone may come up with

Is that summary more -or-less correct?>>

I am not clear on what you meant and would appreciate some clarification

Thanks.

They'll see what's in the From field, but a reply will still go to
ReplyTo. I can see the problem here in that they might :correct: their
Address Book. On the other hand, with OE if you have something tin the
Name field of the account then they won't see the email address.

It has been suggested that one way around this problem is to use an
email relay server. I don't know how these work. Presumably you send
email to them and they send it on. My question is, do recipients see
the source as being the ISP domain (bill@xxxxxx), my email host server
(bill@xxxxxxxxxxx) or the email relay server
(bill@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx)?

Thanks.

I have a Client whose ISP (BT Connect) blocks sending email from
anything other than its own domain. He would like to be able to send
email using a domain hosted elsewhere.

I'm sure others have come across this problem but has anyone found a
way around it?

If this is not the appropriate NG for such an enquiry I apologise and
would be grateful if someone can suggest a more appropriate NG.

Thanks.
