 We use the authentication piece with SFE and it works well. But in cases where someone steals or guesses one of my customers passwords it play total havoc. The question I have is there any way to stop the FROM: address being anything  but the authenticated login address? In the case below, someone from Nigeria sent a few hundres thousands email emails thru us after authenticating with kselzer@murphystoregroup.com email address. After realizing what was happening and changing her password I have since selected to block almost all foreign countries for this spamfilter that is used strictly for mail delivery for my customers.

It would be great if there was a filter that checked if the FROM: address in the outgoing email was the same as the authenticated login address, and if different, quarantine it. This would only apply if the authentication part was enabled.
 
Thanks for listening!
