Google for Header not in Internet Syntax
One of the sites that comes up tells you this:
441 Posting Failed ("From" Header not in Internet Syntax.)
Your from address must have the form username@some.domain
It does not have to be valid, but it must have the correct form.
This has not to be your real mail address, it may be a fake address.
