Instead of using Gmail's servers to send the message, we'll use the servers where your other email address lives. Since Gmail isn't the originating domain, we don't have to include "Sender" info in the header. No more "on behalf of."

In some casual testing by me it works with earthlink but not godaddy or namezero. It gets a message:

Your other email provider is responding too slowly. Please try again later, or contact the administrator of your other domain for further information.
I have had trouble with some SMTP servers that do not let you send mail unless you have recently logged in and checked your inbox. I guess this is in order to prevent spam flowing freely out.
