The solution below does not work to put multiple exchange accounts within the one profile. What it does do is allow you to access multiple exchange accounts from within the one profile, without having to re-enter credentials all the time.
It's a simple 23 or 25 step process (oh joy!) but it produces a workable solution if you put in the initial effort. I'm still annoyed that the whole process can't be more straight forward. I know it's not the exact the answer to the problem that people are
seeking (myself included), but hopefully it helps, at least while something better is found or developed.
