Aha! It all becomes clear - this is *not* an rewrite problem, it's a
submission problem.

Please see the following:

Regarding the MUA, I don't know which one you're using but I have
completely separate user login details from those used to compose and
send this message.

If you're using SquirrelMail or Horde/IMP, for example, you may also
need to add the user the web app or server runs as to the "trusted
users" list to permit modification of outbound addresses. There are
several ways to do this:

I hope that helps.
