Many ISPs (at least in Switzerland) don't allow you to send mail with a
sender address that doesn't belong to this particular ISP... I think this
is plain stupid (it doesn't prevent spamming in any way). For those who
need it, I have set up pop-before-smtp. It's a little perl script that is
fed pop3/imap logs and that directly changes the accesstable, and another
that expires these entries after some time. No problems so far.
