I assume this is all relevant to when you _send_ mail from webmail.

And youve sort of answered your own question. In one of the mail
displayed in Outlook 2000, do a 'view messages source', and you will see
that no header contains that 'on behalf of' crap - OE2000 is making it
up.. Its possible that it is seeing perhaps a "Sender:" header that
differens from a "From:" header, and that is what is causing it..
