Setting "Sender" on new emails.

[preben nielsen]

Hi

I program a lot in Excel but have only done basic email-creation
and sending with the Outlook objects so please help me out here.

The situation is that in my office we each have our own mailbox
and we also share a mailbox - all in Outlook. Now were
auto-generating email for customers and I would like to have it
appear as if the emails are sent from the shared address instead
of from my own. However there does not seem to be a .From
attribute on the olMailItem object.

Can it be done ??

The property you need to set is SentOnBehalfOfName.

If you are using Exchange, set the SentOnBehalfOfName property.
If you are using SMTP, see http://www.dimastr.com/redemption/faq.htm#14
