Hylton, I see you posted from a global.co.za address - they are much
cheaper than most saix reseller ISPs - if they give you this sort of
crap, dump them and go somewhere else. They *should* authenticate you
based on your network address. i.e. if you're inside your ISPs network,
you should be able to send from any address you please. They're a big
company and I'm sure they have many small businesses as clients who have
their own domain.

Failing that they should provide you with smtp authentication.

But I still say, considering what we have available here, dump them and
go somewhere else. I'd be happy to point you in the right direction.
