Did you change all the settings in a suitable manner? Making sure that
the message came from you with a "from" address like that, and didn't
have a "reply-to" address (specifically with a different one).
Checking that a poster's "from" address comes from the same domain as
the server isn't a viable thing to do. Only in some cases is it going
to match, and it doesn't *have* to in any. If it were, fewer of us
would be on this list, we don't all use a mail account from our ISP.
The other obvious thing would be to try setting up those sorts of thing
from a completely different mail service (the dreaded Hotmail, Yahoo, or
another). I rarely use an ISP mail service for another reason: If I
want to leave the ISP, because it began to suck or something, I'll lose
the address, and lose everything else that got associated with it.
Humm, good point...
