Are you sure that it's the RFC 822 message-headers "From: " which needs
to be myaccount@btconnect.com ?  Not just the RFC 821 Envelope From?

What happens if you do:
-----------------------------< cut here >-------------------------------
$ telnet smarthost.domain 25
[ banner ]
HELO whatever
MAIL FROM:<myaccount@btconnect.com>
RCPT TO:<phil.pennock@globnix.org>
DATA
From: danny@malinsystems.com
To: Helpful idjit <phil.pennock@globnix.org>
Subject: Test

foo
.
-----------------------------< cut here >-------------------------------

If I receive that, then you need to set "errors_to" on the relevant
director, so that the Envelope From gets re-written.
