That has been already set i.e. O HoldExpensive=True and also tried with DSbom4.vsnl.net.in (VSNL Server as SMART_HOST) and DSmail.iname.com (mail.com Server as SMART_HOST) > I have never done this myself, so i do not know.

No. Localy we do not have fix IP and I will again instruct provider in US to change to keep all mails comming for our domain in on comman master mail box, as we cannot create multiple usernames on US Server.
