I had a problem similar to this on a site not long ago where what the client
really wanted was a Reply-to but thought the sender was the only way to get
it.  So we added a Reply-to header but set the form up to send from a local
address.

If you have to send mail from the address then the best thing to try is to
do an mx lookup on the user's account and try to send using that mail
server.  However, you cannot always do that and it does take a while to do
the mx lookup.

Either way you have to code your program to make the adjustments.

but he said he can't use "relay for addresses" now, only relay for local
users.

And his ColdFusion SMTP agent is sending mail "FROM: <non-local-accnt>", so
Imail blocks it.
