How do I set up alias' to run in Exchange Server?

Asked by chanab in Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP), Email Clients, Exchange Email Server

Tags: Microsoft, Exchange Server, 2003

I set up an alias (ie. lab) for a user who doesn't use his user name for his email address in Exchange.  When trying to set up his computers with MS Outlook pointing to the email account, I typed in lab for his account and the exchange server sent back his name.  There doesn't seem to be a place to change this option.  I then created a user called lab in AD and created a mailbox for that user and I still couldn't get the email to route correctly.  A different user with an alias (nurse) was able to receive email from an external source and was able to send emails, but did not receive internal emails.  I have set up numerous users that worked correctly and I'm not sure what the problem is.  Any ideas?Start Free Trial
