A work-around to the gmail from: address is to subscribe to the Oly list from
the gmail address as well as yiur preferred address. Then set that gmail
account to not receive lisr messages. Now you can post from either address.
Jez, doing exactly that...

Hmm, I don't use 1. or 2. But 3. is covered because I retrieve my email to my
computers, and since it's an IMAP system each computer has the same messages.
In fact, Gmail has more backed up than I need as it keeps all the messages.
Gmail can simulate sending from a different address, but I suppose the
different server is the problem with the bouncing of messages.
