If you are using Word as your email editor the from option isn't available from the view menu. You can either disable Word as your editor, or you can select the from field from the drop down menu next to the Options button on the Toolbar. This is also how you show the BCC field.

Expand the window if necessary by clicking the down arrow at the very bottom. IT WORKS, I USE IT EVERYDAY AT THE UNIVERSITY WHERE I AM THE EXCHANGE ADMIN / POSTMASTER.

The view menu doesn't contain anything that I can see that leads me to this menu?

It hosts mail for two domains: First.com and second.com. You have it set up correctly so that mail is flowing to the correct mailboxes. Your recipient policy is set to stamp mailboxes with all necessary smtp addresses. If I understand your question, you have a user that has smtp addresses from both domains. His addresses are [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] It could also be [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] is Mikes primary address. Since it is primary, this is the " "From" address displayed in Outgoing mail. On occasion Mike opens a message addressed to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and wants to reply using that same return address. How am I doing so far? If I don't have the right question the answer is irrelevant. Since [EMAIL PROTECTED] is primary, if mike does nothing, his from address will be [EMAIL PROTECTED] But, if he wants to answer any mail and have the return address be [EMAIL PROTECTED] then he must expose the "From" field on outgoing e-mail. This is done with the Outlook View menu. Open the View menu and expand it. Find "From Field" and select it so that a checkbox appears. Now Mike can put in any address that he has "send as" permissions to. He cannot put [EMAIL PROTECTED] for example. He can put in the second address on his user object: [EMAIL PROTECTED] If [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] have delegated him send as permissions, or if these permissions have been given by a sys admin using the "mailbox rights" tab, then Mike can also use [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] as legal from addresses. If Mike tries to use an address that is not legal on that system, he gets an error message. Clear as mud? Walt -----Original Message----- From: Joe L.

Walt -----Original Message----- From: Joe L. Casale [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Saturday, February 23, 2002 8:48 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: multiple domains on one e2k box I have a second domain hosted on my e2k box. I added it to the default recip policy. What I want to know is if the functionality exists, or there is a better way to set it up so that when user "a" receives an email from the non primary address, when they reply that email is used in the email. I don't see how this would possible, but just asking! jlc List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm
