Here is the error I get from two different email client whe to trying to send mail ... to anywhere:

An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: 
5.7.1 <them@example.com>: Recipient address rejected: Sender is not same as SMTP authenticate username.
Please check the message recipient "them@example.com" and try again.

I read about this on the net but found just general tips.  I tried sending to a local user on the same domain, and then to an outside one, but neither work and give this error.  But then, oddly, I set up Mac Mail and everything works great!  It's like the Mozilla (Seamonkey) and ex-Mozilla (Thunderbird) curse!  Has anyone seen this weirdness?

Regards,
Steve
