It seems logical to me that all you need to do is add a DNS entry for
van400.ediconsulting.com.

Your ISP should be able to help you with this.

I apologize if this is slightly off topic.....
Does anyone know of a public SMTP server that can be used on the Internet.
Before anyone thinks I am a spammer trying to hide, here is the deal.  When
my AS400 attempts to send email via my DSL connection, it formats the sender
id to be CARL?VAN400@van400.ediconsulting.com.  My DSL providers SMTP server
rejects the request because it does a DNS lookup on van400.ediconsulting.com
and does not get a hit.  If I send mail with just the ediconsulting.com
domain, everything works fine.
Any ideas?
