NONE of the ISP's in Belgium allow relaying. Any Belgium ISP
allowing relaying will get fairly high fines for doing so. It is a
way to avoid someone using their server for spamming, and I understand
why this is so. Even though I still think they could solve it easy
enough if they used authentication. but what is little me going to do
against big corporations :)
If you know of a provider /smtp server that I could use for relaying,
it may be a solution...

uh huh.... Possible, although why would they do that ?

All I care about is that if they hit "reply" it will return into
whatever mailbox I sent a mail out of. and as I said, I doubt any of
them is smart enough to figure out the real RFC (?) address. ANd if
they do, well, just as long as Reply will get it where it's supposed
to. A reply to a mail sent from support should arrive into the
support inbox.

The inbox, outbox, sent... only has a "general" tab. Is it something
only available in the registered version ?
