I have set up sendmail to use my ISP outgoing mail server as a relay for mail from my server using the instructions I found here

http://www.leo.org/~barner/freebsd/articles/mailsetup/article.html

I use dyndns so that everyone can find myserver (as myserver.dyndns.net). I can send and receive mail on my server.

I am also using a simple mailing list with about 15 subscribers that I set up using a mail alias
(i.e. with the line 'mylist: : include:/usr/home/alan/lists/mylist.txt')


I can send mail to anyone on the list by sending mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] from any of my email accounts and from my account at my ISP (call it [EMAIL PROTECTED]). Other users have also successfully sent mail to the list. However, a subset of the users also use my ISP and their mail to the list gets bounced by the ISP server.

The error message in the bounced email is

553 You are not authorized to send mail as <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
501 5.6.0 Data format error

So <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> and <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> can send mail to the list but not <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Thanks

Alan
