Someone just asked, is it ok to use my email address from my ISP as the SPMT sender and my domain's email as the reply to. In response to that, I said...
Thing is, there really is no wrong. :) That's the beauty. However, it can be confusing with so many options. But you do it only once. So let's sort it out.
In this case, what you are doing is getting your ISP to send the emails and all the bounces and such will go back to your isp currently with EZ NewsLetter.
If someone hits reply to, you will get an email at your domain's email address.
What I suggest is this.
Create a new email account to send EZ NewsLetters on your domain. Maybe news@example.com or newsletter@example.com.
Set that as the send email. Use it's email address and password to log in to smpt. Or, skip the password and use sendmail.
Use your perosnal@example.com email address as the reply to, that is where people will talk to you if they reply to your newsletters.
I think there may be a bounce to address too I over looked. Yet another setting may come!
