Multiple email addresses (different domains) in one Excahnge account
I'm not an Exchange Admin, but I want to know what to ask my Exchange Admin to do for me. I have my own primary email address;ryan@abc.comwhich is an exchange account. I have this setup in Outlook on my primary PC and use webmail to access it when I'm away from my primary PC. I do consulting work for XYZ.com and 123.com. When I do work for them, I need the email addressryan@xyz.comandryan@123.com. I want to have all my email accesible via my one exchange account. How can I go about setting this up? Can I use something like MS Pop collector to run off, check my xyz, 123 email account and deliver that to my abc email account? (this sounds the easiest) But how do I from my abc.com account send emails so they appear to come from xyz and 123? Both via Outlook and OWA? I have had suggested to me something about making forwarding accounts. This makes sense as they will forward to my main account, but how can I set it up so I can send from different email addresses via this account from Outlook and OWA? Cheers Ryan

Hello Ryan, To receive mail from other email accounts to your main account forwarding from main account is the perfect solution. But to send a mail from various accounts by choosing one, it is not possible to set from outlook or OWA of your main account because outlook doesnt support adding POP3 account when you have a one Exchange Server account in profile and OWA of course can handle its own account mail sending and no other accounts.

Bugger... So what would be the best solution for my situation? I Love having an exchnge account for my primary email address due to me being bale to access everything via OWA when i'm not at my primary PC. But I also need to be able to send and receive emails from/to other companies I do work for. I know from my primary PC I cannot set Outlook to connect to 2 exchange accounts. So only option would be to have Exchange as my primary account and POP3 for the companies I consult for... Their must be a better way to have Exchnage style access to multiple email addresses...

Using Outlook I could have my primary account setup as an exchange account then have these other accounts setup as POP accounts. Then when I need to send email from one of the POP accounts I just select "accounts" and choose that account. If I have pop accounts forwarding to the exchange account; what address will the email appear to come from? does it still appear to come from the original sender? or does it appear to come from the forwarding POP account? Whilst not elegant, this could work. All my emails would arive in my exchange account (accesible from Outlook and OWA) and ifI need to send from anohter account, in Outlook I just choose that different account and if I'm away from Outlook I'd just ned to log into OWA for that POP account I want to send from. But then my sent items will be stuck in the POP account andwon't be forwarded to my Exchange account... grrrrrrr Is there anyway to forward sent items to an exchage account? Cheers Ryan
