Hi!
About a year ago (after trying to setup my own smart host) I was found a
service provider for reasonable price. At first time it was work well I
was happy with all of my accounts. But now, I have more and more
partners, who haven't got my emails, even as a spam.
But, if I use my account providers web mail system my emails are
accepted.

Most important, that I need more complicated setup and I need to do more
preparation for change.

Thank you, I would back if I have results.
