At home now, and can answer this a little more in depth.

However, like I said, Google is refusing mails with a source address
that don't pass various rules they have, which is in violation of RFC
5321. And the silly think is that the error Google gives refers to RFC
5321 as a reason why they are refusing.
As the source address should be used when reporting any problems back, I
cannot really fake it either, without potentially loosing more
information. I'm going to try and ping people at Google, but I do not
have very high hopes of this being resolved. So the answer might just be
that Google is broken, and you should avoid it.
Tested a
little on vms. I've changed the code to rewrite from with quotes
so that vms mail can understand it.
Try now.
I get this reply:
From: MIM::
To: TARDIS::SYSTEM
CC:
Subj: Undelivered mail
This is MIM::POSTMASTER. I'm sorry, but I could not deliver your mail.
An error occured while trying to send it, and I cannot recover.
Actual error is Address error.
Additional information: 5.1.2 RFC-5321 address. m203si7390587lfm.109 - gsmtp The original mail is attached below.
(it isn't)
It should have been. Have been all the time I tested. Strange. Are you sure?
Meanwhile, I've got TARDIS receiving its mail as
blah at tardis.recondite-computers.co.uk fine but I'm banging my head against
a wall with outgoing mail. on all machines. Google won't play nice, neith
will my ISP or my VPS.
But that is another story.
Many ISPs won't let you talk SMTP yourself, but you are expected to use
their mailer as a relay. Might that be what you are seeing?
