[General Topics] Chuck_IV:
So I have been using Mail2web's PAID push service for the last year and a half or so and it has been pretty reliable. I get push notifications and when I respond, it shows my real address in the FROM field, which is what I want(to use an alternate FROM address) However the last 3 days, I have been unable to send any emails. Everything I send gets BOUNCED by their server(I still can receive emails just fine). Mail2web has been 100% unresponsive to my issue as I placed a ticket 3 days ago but no responses at all, just a generic "We received it" email. I have sent follow ups and nothing from them. I even posted on their forum and nothing. This is a PAID account too, not the free one.

So I am looking for alternatives to their push service. I just want to be able to get push notifications via Exchange and when I send, have the FROM field show my real email address, not the address of the service, so people respond properly. In mail2web's case, it would send via Mail2web's server/email account, but show my [MENTION=1611793]charter[/MENTION].net email address as the person who sent it(so they can respond appropriately).

As for the BOUNCE, what I discovered is that if I send emails with an alternate "From:" email address(instead of the mail2web.com address) set, Softcom's(Mail2web's parent) will BOUNCE the email and not send it with a Callback setup failed message. I have had it set to use a different FROM address since I started using them, so it's been a while, with no issues.

I get the error listed below(I removed the actual email addresses). I use a Charter.net email as the Alternate FROM email.
