Each time the user has to open the mailbox which he wants to send mail from. This is the only way to do it. If a user selects the "From" field from his profile, the user is a delegate. Exchange will automatically change the sender name to "From x on behalf of y".

I have done that and it accomplishes everything I want except one. We still can't send a new email from it and have the "From" account be that mailbox's name. The "From" account is always the person who has included that mailbox in their Outlook.

Raj -----Original Message----- From: Kelli Irwin [mailto:kirwin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, July 23, 2002 3:29 PM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] common mailbox http://www.MSExchange.org/ Hi All, OK Exchange/Outlook Gurus, I am using Exchange 2000/SP2. My question: Is there a way to create a "common mailbox" that 2 or 3 people (They all have their own mailboxes) can access. I sort of know how to do that by going to Outlook's Tools, Exchange Server Properties, Advanced and adding that Mailbox but the "kicker" is, I need for them to be able to Send mail from it and have that mail's "From" address be the Common Mailbox address...not their own. I do NOT want them to have to sign on as a different user to do this.
