Thanks for the reply. I'm using Outlook 2000 right now, and I'm not sure how to create another profile. I set up a new account under my primary profile, and set the SMTP server to the exchange server (which has SMTP running), but the problem is, I can't tell the account not to check email (OE has this option), so every few minutes, I get an error that it can't find the POP server.
I'm eventually going to moving this external system into Exchange, so I might just wait until I do that. It's an adjustment, moving to the AD/Exchange way of doing things from the SMTP/POP way of doing things. :-) Thanks, Erick > -----Original Message----- > From: Ed Crowley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, July 28, 2003 11:26 AM > To: Exchange Discussions > Subject: RE: Outlook from address > > > Exchange using MAPI won't allow you to use alternate addresses unless > they're in the directory and you have Send As permissions, in > which case you > can specify them in the From: field.
