Frank,
Sorry but I've lost you.

The situation is my Client has an account with BT which blocks email being
sent out using his email address AND so that
recipients see emails as having been received from
?
The options seems to be -

1. Do nothing - having a discrete domain is not a good option
2. Change ISP - not a viable option
3. Subscribe to a relay server - will recipients see the email as coming
from

4. Any other way?

No.3 may be a runner but only if its satisfies both element of the
requirement.
No.4 who knows what anyone may come up with

Is that summary more -or-less correct?

I am not clear on what you meant and would appreciate some clarification


Outlook Express does not show the email address if he has filled in the Name
field for the account. However, it will use that address if the recipient
right clicks and elects to add the sender to the Address Book. I guess the
only way I can think around the problem is to have an account where you can
use the SMTP server through a different port. Norman has written about
that, but the SMTP server I use uses a different port than the ones he
mentions from the RFC.

I really don't know why he doesn't want to use the ISP's mail account.
