We recently had the same problem down here. Our system uses subdomains for each of our clients (client1.mycompanyname.net.au), but users usually register with own business email, so we end up sending emails from my company domain with a from-address like [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
Of course, that didn't exactly fly with spoofing detection, so we created a generic client address like [EMAIL PROTECTED] for the from-address, and used the individual user address in a reply-to mailparam. does that make sense?
