FWIW, it seems to me that since Bob is reporting that more and more of
his email is being marked as spam, that would be a pretty big indication
that there is a problem.  Right or wrong, it seems to me that the days
of submitting email via a server that does not match your From: header
are slowly coming to an end.

It occurs to me that if you want to send to different servers based on
your From: header, a customized postproc would be pretty trivial to whip
up.

I didn't want to say anything and forgive me for piling on ... but I did
notice right away that your messages felt "odd" and I had to look at it
closer to figure it out.  At least for me, it's ... well, I'm not sure
"harder" is the right word.  "Stranger" is a little bit closer.
