Correct. After looking at what I posted, it is confusing. Let's
try again.

wb5agz.swbell.net
That should never show up on the remote end because this is the
host name that is locally defined and not on any DNS A record.
The user ID for me on the local system is martin. The
user ID I registered on the smarthost was martin.m since martin
without anything else already belongs to another customer. If I
hope to send mail through smtp.suddenlink.net, it must see
[email protected] plus the password also used to retrieve
pop3 mail and the retrieval does work.

The mainlog file displays the error that
smtp.suddenlink.net is reporting
2015-07-11 06:29:26 1ZDsyD-0001Rm-PO ** [email protected] R=smarthost
T=remote_smtp_smarthost: SMTP error from remote mail server after
MAIL FROM:<[email protected]> SIZE=1586: host smtp.suddenlink.net

I totally agree. That should have been [email protected].
That is where the wheels came off.
The smarthost sees [email protected] and what it should see
in the From: line is [email protected]

I hope this is a bit more clear.
