OK, but what about an external email that gets sent to the IMail account? That automatically gets sent to the Exchanger server as well, right? So basically, the only way to retrieve email is from Exchange then.

If I didn't have employees at this one particular client site, an very large pharmecutical co., Exchange wouldn't be a problem at all. However, we're not going to drop our #2 client just for an email and collaboration problem. I have to go down this path to investigate my options, which by the way I appreciate everyone's help and input. > > > Please visit http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html > to be removed from this list. > > An Archive of this list is available at: > http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ > Please visit http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html to be removed from this list.
