This would've fitted better on the MailWatch list (find it via
http://mailwatch.sf.net), but basically what you've missed doing is to
set an "envelope sender" (used for the "MAIL FROM: ..." in smtp)... I
suppose you've used the PEAR mail factory class? Then you can have a
look at the php code for mailwatch to see how that is set up to get
these things right (grep for QUARANTINE_FROM_ADDR, and you'll see it
pretty well).
