Masking an email address

I was wondering if it's possible to 'mask' an email address with Exchange 2000 sp3.

I use the term 'mask' loosely here, because I don't know how else to describe it.

I have a domain registered with the zone 'mydomain.com' and it's hosted on a public site, zoneedit.com.

I have an internal domain with the zone 'corp.mydomain.com' on my network, and my exchange server is running in that domain.

What I want to do is when I send email, it will show my email address as 'someone@.mydomain.com' instead of 'someone@corp.mydomain.com'.

Also, when someone sends an email to 'someone@mydomain.com', it will forward it to 'someone@corp.mydomain.com'.

Is this possible? How should I configure exchange? Any configuration in DNS as well?

I do not think this is a problem. Make sure MX record for both domains are pointing to the same Exchange Server (This will be done by your provider? Or can you do this youself).

Configure both domains on Exch2K.
See for more information url :

And configure each user to have both domains (someone@mydomain.com and someone@corp.mydomain.com) Make the smtp address of 'someone@mydomain.com' the default smtp address.

That's all
