sorry I didn't read your original post, I didn't think I could help.
I haven't read your original thread, so I don't know if someone has
suggested this already.
I get this problem when I try to send mail to, say, [EMAIL PROTECTED] from
[EMAIL PROTECTED] account when I'm actually not connected through isp.com, but
rather through a 3rd party isp.
This is called relaying, which spammers look for because it enables
anyone to send spam, and hence any good isp should block it.
What you can try is:
1. Make sure you're actually on your isp.com network - get the ip
address of their mail server, and get your ip address and see.
2. Enable passwords with your mail client - not just to check mail, but
to send mail as well. (With evolution its in Edit > Prefs > Mail
Accounts > (select account) > edit > Sending Mail > Authentication. It
looks like you're using mozilla though...)
HTH, and as I said, I hope this wasn't already mentioned in the original
thread...
