My two cents on this... I work for an ISP, and true, no reputable
ISP will allow relaying. If they do, they will be blackholed in
fairly short order. Normally, the ISP restricts this by only
allowing mail to be sent if it originates from one of their own
IP addresses, (ie the pool used for their dialup services or dsl
connections). Essentially, sendmail checks all mail being
relayed, (not destined for the account of one of the ISP's
customers), against a table of allowed IP addresses. I really
don't think the from email address on the email makes any
difference here, but rather the IP it originates from.
