Hi everybody, I am sure that some of you might have already hit the same problem and one might even have come to a solution... I have a customer using Exchange 2007 SP2. There are 3 external mail domains in use. All smtp-addresses are using the following pattern: givenname.surname@first-domain.tld givenname.surname@second-domain.tld givenname.surname@third-domain.tld In Exchange every user has his respective addresses on his mailbox with the @first-domain.tld as primary SMTP-address and the other two adresses as secondary smtp-addresses. The problem is now that my valued customer has to be able to send with each of his mail adresses. Exchange now - as we all know - always uses the primary smtp address as the from:-address in outgoing mails. Is there ANY supported way to do this except for one of the following "solutions" 1) create distribution groups (one with the @second-domain.tld and one with the @third-domain.tld) and add the user to "his" group and grant him the "send as" permission on the group. then add the From-Field to Outlook and have the user choose the distribuition group to send from... 2) create a mailbox for every alternate address and forward all incoming mail to the "primary" user. grant that user the "send as" on the other mailboxes. then add the From-Field to outlook et cetera... My personal opinion is that the above "solutions" are - pardon the expression - bullshit and total ____ because we have to create multiple objects in active directory for EACH user. This creates an enormous amount of additional work for the administrator... (yeah, sometimes I am lazy - especially if there have to be more elegant solutions). I even thought of implemeting a transport agent to solve that... Anyone from Microsoft maybe? Thanks in advance!

How about third party solution such as Smart Replyfrom ivasoft? http://www.ivasoft.biz/smartreply2007.shtmlMVP Exchange Server

Yes agreed. Exchange donot have native tool to make this possible. You need to opt for third party. similar case below http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchangesvradmin/thread/d25297c9-3430-4aea-887f-acdd31479f28 You can also take a look @ http://ivasoft.com/choosefrom2007.shtmlVinod |CCNA|MCSE 2003 +Messaging|MCTS|ITIL V3|

Yes, as the friends said above, Exchange 2007 doesn't have such a feature, you need to leverage the third party solutions. Thanks,Elvis
