The two paragraphs quoted above, sound contradictory.  If it *only*
requires you to be on one of their client IP addresses, why do you think
SMTP AUTH is going to help?

While a person's ISP mightn't stop them from doing that, various mail
services will not accept mail sent directly from an ISP customer's IP
address.

An alternative might be to use a different SMTP server.  There's many
mail service providers available on the net, perhaps using one of them
would be better than the ISP.

The original poster might want to post their entire sendmail
configuration file, so other eyes can look for errors.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
I read messages from the public lists.
