Hi Rob

I will post the solution in due course - but the current configuration 
is actually more complex than I originally alluded to.

At the moment, we're on a trial with the new anti-spam service - for 
this domain only.  All of the other domains are still protected by the 
old service.

Having checked with the new provider - they would rather mail from the 
other domains was not routed via their servers for the duration of the 
trial.

Having read chapter 20 of the document - as pointed to - I have a good 
idea how its going to be written - indeed, one of the examples appears 
to almost exactly fit the bill.

But these are routers that care about what domains they route mail to - 
and they don't give a wet slap about what the From: address is, and 
really, there's no logical reason why they should care.

So, I'm holding off writing the router until the trial ends (in about 12 
days) and my management make a decision as to whether we're going with 
the new service for all domains - or staying with the old one.

Whatever decision is taken, I'll have a router to write thereafter - so 
I'll post the solution then.

Hope you don't mind the wait.

Regards
Neil
