no it is not this way for such cases we use sender dependent-relayhosts with authentication in our admin-backend, so WE NEVER directly submit mail with foreign senders, the customer can use our server and we do not break SPF > In this environment, for an ISP to say that your outgoing emails must be > from "their" domain, would be unacceptable, and cause a loss of business. and that is way ISPs often blacklisted and in some baclklists even CUSTOMERS of this ISP which does not show any reaction to complaints because they could chosse one who does "ISP" and "would be unacceptable" is somehow dumb because you are not realizing that this is a no-go - why? because if ONE customer is infected by malware this starts to send with spoofed senders and burn down the reputation of this poorly setup host - so who wil send about servers the half world throws away mails from them? if i have a domain i have a mailserver respsonsible for this domain if i want to send mails with f...@mydomain.tld i have to use this server there is no "if" and "but", accept it or live with the problems
