imap and exchange
hi everyone,
I have set up outlook to access 2 exchange servers. One account connects to server 1 (domain 1) as an Exchange server. Account 2 connects to server 2 (domain 2) as an IMAP server. Account 1 (the exchange account) delivers mail to a local pst file due to bandwidth restrictions. Two questions: 1) Can I have different delivery locations for the 2 accounts (I understand that IMAP stores mail in the default mail store) 2) I have tried sending mail via the IMAP account. When I compose a new message, I select the IMAP account in the Account drop down list at the top of the e-mail. Nevertheless the message is sent using the Exchange account. Even if I change the IMAP account to the default account the message is still sent via the Exchange account. How can I send mail for users of Exchnage server 2 via the IMAP account? TIA eddiec PS BTW, the second server is for local mail for a local domain only, hence the 2 servers |

1) IMAP always uses it's own pst since you download copies from the server.
If you move messages to the imap store, they'll be uploaded to the imap server. 2) Can you send using the imap account if you only have an imap account in the profile? There is a bug in outlook that it sends on any account if it can't send on the selected account. If the second server is not configured right or you aren't authenticating right, mail won't send. BTW - if you type your imap email address in the from field, the exchange server (domain 1) should reject it because your exchange account (domain 1) doesn't have send as permission for that address (on the exchange server domain 1). -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Author, Teach Yourself Outlook 2003 in 24 Hours Coauthor, OneNote 2003 for Windows (Visual QuickStart Guide) Author, Google and Other Search Engines (Visual QuickStart Guide) Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Join OneNote Tips mailing list: http://www.onenote-tips.net/ "eddiec" wrote in message ... hi everyone, I have set up outlook to access 2 exchange servers.

thanks Diane,
I removed the Exchange account and was still unable to send mail. The problem appears to be that there is no from address, however, even when I display the from field and specify myself as the sender it still does not send: Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients. Subject: test 2 Sent: 23/06/2005 2:54 PM The following recipient(s) could not be reached: Laboratory on 23/06/2005 2:54 PM None of your e-mail accounts could send to this recipient. If I now look in the From field in the sent item it says "on behalf of; XXX XXXX" instead of saying that the message is actually from XXX. Help!

are you authenticating with the SMTP server you are trying to use? I've had
problems sending through SMTP when I use IMAP to exchange. If it wasn't properly configured on the Exchange side to allow it, I had to use another SMTP. I don't recall the error message I got with it though. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Author, Teach Yourself Outlook 2003 in 24 Hours Coauthor, OneNote 2003 for Windows (Visual QuickStart Guide) Author, Google and Other Search Engines (Visual QuickStart Guide) Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Join OneNote Tips mailing list: http://www.onenote-tips.net/ "eddiec" wrote in message ... thanks Diane, I removed the Exchange account and was still unable to send mail.
