email config problem with godaddy host

[talerian]

Hi, haveing a problem with godaddy hosting email account setup. I set all my email options in the admin>emails settings and the email works for the most part unless I send to AOL or hotmail, I have already read the other post about those 2 rejecting emails from unknown and sending them to the spam folder due to them being sent from "unknown". I contacted godaddy to check things out but of course they say it is a zen cart problem with zen cart not applying correct email address to the "from" field. I currently have it set to smtpauth with the mailbox name, host server, and password set and confirmed with godaddy but when sent to my aol account it goes to spam so I go there and look at the source code and it shows "from" HELO www.my_domain_name.com and not support@my_domain_name.com like it should. Has anyone found a soultion to this problem? I am pretty sure I am not the 1st to have this issue based on the troubleshooting email problems post I already read. I am using zen cart 1.3.9h, linux platform on host. I feel it is something to do with mail going thru relay server vs regular email server but that of course is out of my control. I would be great full for any help or ideas. Thanks

Correct.

but that of course is out of my control.

Well, not really. There are dozens of MUCH BETTER hosting services out there that are actually configured in a traditional way and work amazingly better in all respects, not isolated to email alone.

Same solution: Use a better more reliable host.
