As long as a mail (= SMTP) server thin ks to "know" me, I can usually 
send messages with whatever from information I want to. It is the 
responisbility of the server operator to know WHO has sent WHAT 
message WHEN. So, IF there is a problem with a message (such as spam, 
or whatever), you should be able to find out the guilty person by 
analyzing your SIMS logs.

Best wishes, Christian.
