Rewrite Email Address

[KJK]

Wondering if someone has ran into a similar issue and if there is a solution
available.

What I would like to do is this.

My company has several email domains. Several users within the org need to
use the different email org's for sending and receiving mail. My problem is
this, I need the ability to send mail from these different email domains on
the fly and from a single outlook client.

I realize I could give rights to other mailboxes and simply change the FROM
dialog to that mailbox but, this would add overhead to the common user. Like
I said I'm looking to do this on the Fly.

I'm also looking for a clean way to sink Calendars and the GAL.

Thanks!

Instead, simply create POP accounts, one for each sending address. Specify
your outgoing mail server as the SMTP server and specify anything at all for
the POP server (since you won't be using it). Disable receiving for those
accounts with the Send/Receive group so that Outlook never tries to send
using those accounts. Then when you want to send, just choose the account
with the correct address using the Accounts button.

Great idea but, unfortunately I do not thing that this would work.

The user receiving the mail would have to constantly be on the alert for
where email was going to and making sure to always reply using that address.
I don't think that this would work for these high maintenance users. I'm
looking for a more programmatic way to do this. Maybe a 3rd party add-in or a
utility riding on the Exchange server.......

Why? It works for me every day.

Well, one must be willing to pay attention to what one is doing, as you say.

It's not a question of it working. I believe 100% that this would work, but
for a NON-IT worker this is added overhead becuase you must manipulate each
time how you are sending the outbound mail.

Overhead? 0.5 seconds per message?
