Pete,
Just FYI and  for the interest of the list.

I have tried various settings in the 'Edit -> Preferences' settings and
although they appear to 'stick' within the config itself (ie make the
edit-make changes-apply-exit - changes show correctly on next edit),
they don't appear to be picked up by Evo immediately.
In this instance, I have two SMTP accounts (domains) with the same
provider - so the server is the same, just the login changes. One of the
accounts has the 'purchased' authenticated SMTP and the other not. If I
change the accounts so they both use the 'authorised smtp' user, I need
to shut down Evo completely and reboot before the change takes effect -
obviously ditto for changing it back. Bit of a pain - but it explains
what I thought I saw earlier.

I'm all but certain that I've changed config settings in the past
(earlier versions of Evo) and they took effect immediately, so maybe
there's either a bug or a change in this (3.2.3) version of Evo.

Anyway, my EMail provider does as you said they might, and checks the
'from' address being of the correct domain - and rejects the send anyway
- sods law.

I'm just checking with my ISP to see if their mail service allows me to
'relay' across domains.

Thanks for your assistance and input.
