No. No ISP I know of will relay e-mail for you. The problem is that if you
were able to send e-mails using another ISP's smtp server, it would be far
too easy to send bulk spam mail. (In fact, unsecure smtp servers who _do_
relay e-mail are frequently used for sending spam). You should use the
smtp server of the ISP you are connected to. It will make no difference
whatsoever for your e-mail headers (From: and Reply-to: addresses).

Exactly as it should be, ;-)
