send as group in exchange 2003

Good day, I have a situation, A client of mine, running exchange 2003, has three users that belong to a distribution group. They want these three users to send email as this group. So when they send email it should be from: group@domain.ca. Further to that they want to restrict the ability of the same three users to send or recieve any email externally that is not directed to the group account. They also need to keep their personal mailboxes for internal communications. I thought this a straightforward operation but I can not get this to work the way they want it, and am going to need some help.

Thanks,

Brian Pierce

You can either use "Send on behalf of" http://www.cryer.co.uk/brian/msexchange/exch_howto_grant_send_on_behalf_of.htm
or (and I think this may be what you want), Send AS

Okay - lets see if I can type this right the first time...
Setup a user account and give an exchange box (group@domain.ca) - Give the 3 people permission full access to this mailbox.
You can either a: have them open the mailbox as part of there Outlook profile or b: setup a distribution group and forward all e-mail to this box to the individual accounts. A would be the best way to keep the "internal communcations" part the easiest.
On there outlook setup so they see the from address line. On the restrictions you can do that on each user accounts Mailbox settings, let me know if you need further information on that.
