Duplicate address exists

Is there a way to get two different mail-enabled contacts to be able to use the same address? I want both people to show up in the address list but they use the same personal email account at home. I get an error that says "duplicate address exists already in the Directory".

A very simplistic work around for this would be to create two accounts. One pointing to the correct address and one simply pointing to a local address. Then, on the local address, set up a rule to auto-forward mail to the other correct address. Not the most elegant solution, but one that will work.

This is for TWO contacts using the same email address, not for one contact with two addresses. (these are also not user accounts, they are contacts)

Hi,

I was able to create a second contact with the same email address as another in Outlook Express 6.

What email client are you using?

Cheers,
Tim.

I'm referring to email-enabled Contacts in Active Directory on an Exchange 2000 Server, not an email client.
