Why would things look any different if I use my ISP instead of my IMP
(Mail Provider)? I'll check this week, but I'm not conviced yet.
And how about those ideas about restricting the IP where a mail from a
certain domain comes from? That was the main reason why I chose to relay
to my IMP instead of my ISP, because they can authenticate me as the
owner of that address, which my ISP knows nothing about.
It's not as if I were trying to reach the final destination in all
cases, I'm relaying to the MSA responsible for my sender's domain.
Only in my attached example of a test mail to myself that is the same
host, as it would be for all recipients using the same mail provider.

Not entirely sure what you're saying in the last two paragraphs, but it
looks different from the receiving MTA.
It's thought process, approximately:
Who's trying to connect to me? It's a static IP with correct DNS
reversals? Okay, works for me.
Versus:
Who's trying to connect to me? A dynamic IP address? Looks spammy to
me. REJECT!
