I have adapted to this without too much trouble. Inbound server is IMail and outbound is their ISP. Or I setup dns such that smtp.theirdomain.com points to their isp (not a good solution for diverse and large domains). I imagine it will become an issue when the isps also will not allow them to send out stamped from a domain that they do not host. I did run into that awhile back with pacbell, but we discussed it with them and they lost a customer to me. Brian Andrus -----Original Message----- From: Robert J.

Not sure about the one's that don't but, any ISP using StarNet (aka "MegaPOP") for their national dialups IS doing it. That's several thousand at last count....
