Hello All--

(sorry for the drawn out explanation.....)

Is there a way to setup a user, that has ownership rights to more than one email account (in Outlook 2k), so that he can access all while logging onto the (windows nt exchange) network with their (the multiple accts) personal acct. info?

for example, Leonard is logged onto the NT network and has three profiles (his personal, BUSINESS mailbox, & SNAP mailbox) setup in his Outlook startup. Instead of selecting Leonard in the profiles box he selects BUSINESS to answer office mail.

How do I set it up so that he can select BUSINESS from the Outlook profile prompt (so that he can send and respond to emails with BUSINESS in the from: section (not "on the behalf of" stuff)) without entering the BUSNINSS acct password?

win95, outlook2k, exchange on winnt server

Upgrade the OS to NT4 w\s or Win2k, Windows 9x versions do not hand on passwords to NT with any great success

First - on the Exchanges server go to the reciepients container and change the Primary Windows NT account to Leonard's or you can create a group and make Leonard a member and then assign the group as the Primary Account.

Second - on Leonard's computer use the mail icon in the control pannel to create each mail profile for the different mailboxes.

Third - in Outlook Select options from the tool menu, on the second tab "Mail Services" select prompt for which profile to use.

Then Leonardopens Outlook and selects which profile to use, when he needs to switch he closes Outlook (Alt, f ,l) and then re-opens and selects a different profile.
