I have a client who wishes to send emails from multiple exchange addresses, they already have 2 exchange mailboxes setup in their outlook, is there a way that I can add further accounts which they can also send from within outlook??

Hi Bahloul I have done all this, but I don't get the option to send from the new account when I create new message?
OK , jut in outlook open a new message navigate to options tab  then click on From it will appear an a drop list and choose the users from the list  nut make sure to restart the outlook after adding the user .

its not showing in the list for some reason, I can select other email addresses and choose the user, but I get undeliverable message saying I don't have permission to send from this user??

You will need to grant the user Send As access to the other mailboxes.

To do this:
- Open the Exchange Management Console on the Exchange server
- Expand Recipient Configuration
- Click Mailbox
- Right click on the other user's mailbox
- Choose Manage Send As Permission
- Add the user
- Follow the wizard to complete the process
So just assign the required permission below from EMS :-


Add-ADPermission "Mailbox" -User "Domain\User" -Extendedrights "Send As"

OR

have granted send permissions and full access permissions still not working, not sure what I am missing!?!
Send As permissions don't take affect straight away, you generally have to wait two hours for the changes to apply.

You can force the permissions to take affect by restarting the Microsoft Exchange Information Store service if you don't want to wait, but note that this will temporarily disconnect all users in Outlook.
you may need to wait some times The problem is Exchange caches the permission.
Therefore if the permission had not been used before (so Exchange has queried it) then you would be able to use it immediately. If it has, then the cache kicks in. The only way to clear the cache is to restart the information store. Forcing domain replication will have no effect.

if you have DAG move the active database copy to another server it could fix it.

have tried everything but still cannot send via new address, have restarted information store, restarted the server?? any other suggestion's, have done simply everything I know, never come across this problem before?
You can add two mailboxes in a single profile.

1. Initially configure first exchange account in outlook normally.
2. to configure second account click on menu,
3. Go with new mail account option( different in outlook 2007 and outlook2010 that's why I am not mentioning how to go to new mail account option. Hope you aware about it)
4.In Account Settings window, click on New and select E-Mail Account radio button and click next.
5. Fill all the details like your name, email and password and click next and click finish.
6. restart your outlook, it will prompt for password every time when your restart your outlook, be careful when it ask for password, please check for which mailbox it is asking for password.(Here you are attaching two mailboxes, password may be vary).
7. Now click on new mail option and check from field.

Let me know if it is not working.

thank you....
