How to configure multiple outgoing Microsoft Exchange accounts in Outlook 2007?

I use Outlook 2007 to manage my email. I have two Microsoft Exchange email accounts from my University. One is my personal one and the other is from an admin position I hold. How can I set up Outlook in order that I can send emails from both these accounts.How to configure multiple outgoing Microsoft Exchange accounts in Outlook 2007?can you access any of these accounts by using pop or smtp?



either that or try to get one forwarding to the other... and just send from one but receive from bothHow to configure multiple outgoing Microsoft Exchange accounts in Outlook 2007?Outlook 2007 only allows one Exchange profile.

However, you can add a second mailbox and then add the FROM: line in your outgoing emails.



Tools | Accounts |

Highlight the exchange account

Click %26quot;Change%26quot;

Click More Settings | Advanced (tab)



Under %26quot;Open these additional mailboxes%26quot; click add and type in the first 3 or 4 letters of the 2nd mailbox. Allow Outlook to find the mailbox in the Global Address List. If it doesn't come up, make sure the mailbox you are trying to add is not %26quot;hidden%26quot; -- this can be checked by someone in IT or by you if you have access to AD Users and Computers snap-in.



Click OK and Next until you get to finish.



You should now see the new mailbox in your list of folders. It probably appears a just one line so click on the [+] next to it.



This is assuming you have permission to this mailbox via the same account you log into Windows with...otherwise you will get prompted to enter a username/password.



Now Open up a blank email, as if you are going to send one.

Click on Options and then %26quot;Show From%26quot;

Click the %26quot;X%26quot; in the upper right to save the changes.

Now open another new email like you did before and notice that the FROM field is now present.



If you don't type anything in the FROM field, Outlook will always send the email using your primary exchange account, not the additional mailbox you added.

If you have %26quot;Send As%26quot; rights to the additional mailbox, then you can type its name into the FROM field and send email as that account.



I used this trick when I use to work for a centralized help desk so I could send announcements as the help desk.How to configure multiple outgoing Microsoft Exchange accounts in Outlook 2007?same like outlook 2003,just open outlook and add new identity with your in comming and out going mail server and add accounts credentials as you have....thats it....when ever you want just switch to user.
