I think you should be sending your mail via your work's authenticated SMTP
relay (and yes, I'm aware they probably don't run one :). This is a
requirement anyway if your work published SPF records for the domain.

This does of course also mean that you can't register a domain name via a
3rd-party registrar and send mail from that domain via your ISP's mail
servers (since your ISP has no idea that you own that domain).
