OK thanks, that's kinda what I was expecting. Unfortunately for me, my 
external address floats around depending on what my ISP gives me, so I 
can't configure a static name in my client to match that. For now I'm 
trying to see what happens if I set it to the name of my domain I own, 
but the servers that host that aren't the ones I send mail through.

I do use TLS, but what I'm trying to debug is not so much that the email 
service *I* use checks, but that the final receiving server scans 
through the headers and flags anything with a NAT address. I'm having 
intermittent problems with some of my mail being flagged as spam when I 
mail anyone at a local university and I'm not sure what's going on yet.
