forwarding via 2nd mailbox...

[Steve Paul]

While in Outlook 2003, (Mailboxes are on E2k3,SP2)

I am logged into my mailbox (MBX-A) via OLK2k3, and I have an additional
mailbox opened (MBX-Z), with full mailbox rights, I would like to FORWARD
items that are recieved into MBX-Z (from time to time).

The Forwarding is not an issue as much as the FROM line is.

Is there a way by (default) that any ITEMs that I forward received in MBX-Z,
that the FROM line would be always from MBX-A...seeing that is the mailbox
that I'm actually LOGGED into ...and I assumed would be the default
practice, but it doesn't seem to be.

My testing has shown that the FROM line would be from the mailbox that I'm
forwarding from:
Example:
user is logged into MBX-A, while opening additional MBX-Z
-a forward e-mail from MBX-A, shows the from line of MBX-A
-a forward e-mail from MBX-Z, shows the from line of MBX-Z

--> desired result:
A forward e-mail from either MBX-A or MBX-Z would always be from MBX-A
(because that is really the mailbox that Im logged into via the e-mail
profile)

Is this by design ? Is there an article that someone can direct me to?

Do you here send as permission on the mailbox?

Do you have send as permission on the mailbox?

if you have send as, it will always use the shared mailbox acct to forward.
You can change it - show the from field and delete the mailbox name - it
should go from your main acct (no need to select your name, the blank field
defaults to your acct).
