Hi John, Are you saying that the mail sent from your mail server is being rejected?
If that is what's happening, I helped someone with a similar problem some time ago. If I remember correctly, we setup his dns spf statement to just one of his ISPs mail servers. Then we set that server in smtproutes to send his mail through that specific server and it worked for him. Hope that is of help to you.
