Is it possible to send and recieve e-mail from 2 different domains? 1

[nayan69]

I have Windows 2000 server running Exchange 2000, the mail client is Outlook XP.
I have primary domain which users are able to send and recieve mail from.
A member of my company needs to send and recieve mail from a seperate domain aswell as the primary domain and must be able to choose from which account i.e. test.com or test2.com to send mail from.
Firstly I need to know is this possible??? and if it is possible how do I go about implementing this?!?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes it's possible. In Exchange System Manager you need to create a recipient policy that adds the new @mycompany.com to users mail accounts (or just the specified user). If you don't do this the Exchange want accept mail for the domain.

Then create a new mail account with the new address you need to send and receive as. Set this to forward onto the users normal account. Then give them full mailbox access to this new account.

The user can then, when in Outlook, click NEw Message, View | From Field and select the other account they need to send from.

Giving them Full Mailbox access means the sent messages does safe 'sent on helf of .....'

Hope this helps.....
