How do I control the "From:" field?

[Guest]

Hi - I am using the "From" optional field (new message, options, From) in
Outlook 2003. When someone receives an e-mail from me, I want the "From"
field to specify ONLY what I typed in the "From" field. Right now, when
someone receives an e-mail from me, it says:

xxxx [yyyy] on behalf of zzzz

where xxxx and yyyy are "Your Name" and "E-mail Address" provided under the
'User Information' section of the account used to send the e-mail; and zzzz
is the e-mail address typed into the 'From' field of the new message.

I just want it to say zzzz

Can anyone tell me how to do this with Outlook 2003?

Hi,

in case you are using Outlook with Exchange and PublicFolders have a look
at: http://www.lucatec.de/mask
This Add-in for Outlook is a small utility which automates certain routine
tasks if you're working with a Exchange Server and have set up public eMail
accounts for individual departments, branches or tasks of your organization.
Apart from your personal email address/mailbox you may have access to one or
more shared mailboxes or public folders, e.g. for your department or for
special tasks like support enquiries. If you want to send an email as coming
from a shared mailbox or public folder, you have to manually add the "From"
field via the View menu and enter the respective sender address there.
Otherwise the mail would be sent with your personal email address and any
replies would end up in your personal mailbox (and you would have to move
same to the shared mailbox for other users to be able to view it). This is
where the tool steps in: It will automatically determine the correct sender
address to use based on the mailbox or public folder the user is currently
located in within Outlook. Additionally, it offers the option to move or
copy the sent message to the relevant account's Sent Items folder (or the
originating Public Folder itself).

Perhabs this is the solution you searched for...
