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?

See my post about consulting with your client's hosting provider. If the
client's hosting provider will allow connection to their SMTP server
through another port than port 25, you just have to configure MSOE for
that other port, and SSL, if requires. Alas, MSOE will only perform
STARTTLS (aka, "TLS") on port 25. Don't confuse SSL and TLS; they _are_
different.

If not, consider the following examples:

Yahoo! Mail 'smtp.mail.yahoo.com:587':

My Japanese is weak, and I didn't have time to work out how to configure
'smtp.mail.yahoo.co.jp' to accept non-domain email. It can be done, and
should be possible with 'smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk' as well. It doesn't show
here because I use a Yahoo! Public Profile ID (hard2findanamenotused)
for the log in. With just the email address, it would have shown,
with login)". But you don't see that
email address as the Return-Path, or the sender; those are "
email addresses.

With 'smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk', I imagine that your client will have to
configure his email address as an authorized sender. The Yahoo! UK
account should still offer free access to the SMTP server for just
subscribing to Yahoo! Delivers; that is how I got access to
'smtp.mail.yahoo.co.jp'. Port 587 must be used when port 25 is blocked.

GMail 'smtp.gmail.com:587':

Although the Return-Path is the GMail account email address, all the
recipient sees for the sender is the " email address; as
well, that is the email address to which a reply will be sent.

With MSOE unable to use STARTTLS (TLS) on port 587, your client would
have to configure MSOE to use port 465 with SSL. As with Yahoo! Japan,
GMail also requires configuring a non-GMail domain as an authorized
sender before trying to use it so.

GMail is free, but requires an invitation.

Frankly, getting alternate port access through the hosting service would
be a superior solution. Your client is paying for the service, the
provider should offer the service.
