Because I work for a fairly large county with lots of agencies and
departments.  The Office of Public Affairs would really like for everything
to go out under one email address to show citizens that this is really from
our county government (granted, anyone can pose as anyone else, but they're
trying to lend credibility to this).

We could have lots of people pose as someone else, but I thought it made
more sense to have the software that we've just bought ensure consistency if
possible ...

Maybe I do not understand you, but why don't you just log onto the account
from which you want the e-mail to appear to be sent then send it, or just
use any of a number of mail programs, such as Netscape, to spoof the
address in question?
