But seen from our side the problem was exactly the same.
Before, in this thread, you said:

"However, and this is the real problem, hotmail can not see that this mail was forwarded, so they actually think that UK2 was the sender, since that is the last place of origin"

So the real problem is not hotmail thinking UK2 was the sender then? One of the reasons I distrust Ditlev and uk2 is because they are constantly changing position and being inconsistent, see Ditlev's posts to the moneysavingexpert forums where the Internet archive contradicts his statements.

Hmm. Six email accounts. You don't really believe that's appropriate alternative do you?

If you made it 500, or even 50, then you'd be much more convincing. Doesn't have to be long term - just until the current hosting contracts expire.

Of course that would affect the add-on revenue, so that's the real test - are you prepared to sacrifice a short term additional revenue stream from a group of customers you yourself describe as a minority?
