Depends if you want your user to have to switch between Outlook profiles or not. I never said my way was the best way but I've done it dozens of times without issue.

S From: Jeremy Phillips [mailto:jere...@cohesivelogic.com] Sent: Tuesday, May 26, 2009 12:51 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Send from different e-mail address in Outlook Create a new message, click over to Options and click on "Show From". Once it's clicked you should see the From field in all new messages. One thing to remember is that leaving the From field blank will default to the mailbox address (jsm...@abc.com<mailto:jsm...@abc.com> in the below message) - he'll only have to fill it in when selecting the DL as the sender. Here is a screenshot of where you can find it in Outlook 2007. http://imgur.com/pjgxe.png Thanks, Jeremy Phillips M: 540-322-7980 | BB PIN: 318A6889 From: Stefan Jafs [mailto:sj...@amico.com] Sent: Tuesday, May 26, 2009 8:43 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Send from different e-mail address in Outlook Thanks Jeremy, that sound like a workable solution, ok one more question, the From field in Outlook? ___________________________________ Stefan Jafs From: Jeremy Phillips [mailto:jere...@cohesivelogic.com] Sent: Tuesday, May 26, 2009 11:36 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Send from different e-mail address in Outlook This would work fine but I see one potential issue; the user potentially doesn't know which address the mail was sent to as it will just show his name in the To field. This is overcome with the DL solution. I generally ask the user to define which domain they want to be their primary and set it up as follows; User - John Smith jsm...@abc.com<mailto:jsm...@abc.com> DL - John Smith (XYZ) jsm...@xyz.com<mailto:jsm...@xyz.com> That way it's easy for the user to say "Oh, it says "John Smith (XYZ)" (the DL in this case) in the To field, I should probably respond from that same address to avoid confusing people."

I do this: 1. Enable the client PC(s) of the person(s) affected to relay mail through your Exchange server. 2. Setup a POP/SMTP account in Outlook, giving it the alternate SMTP address and using the Exchange server as the Outgoing and Incoming mail server. You can put anything at all for username and password in the POP3 setup. 3. Click the More Settings button and type the same E-mail address for the name of the mail account. Save the account settings. 4. Go to Tools / Options / Mail Setup / Send-Receive. For this POP/SMTP account, UN-check "receive mail". Now users can click on the Accounts toolbar button and choose any of the POP/SMTP accounts you setup to use as an alternate From address.

You could create a DL with the alternate SMTP, give him Send As permissions, make him the sole member and show him how to use the From field in Outlook.

We have added the multiple SMTP addresses and set one as default. is there a way in Outlook to select which SMTP he is sending from? ___________________________________ Stefan Jafs ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja ~
