The To line

[Guest]

I have users that monitor many mailboxes:
(e-mail address removed) (default)
(e-mail address removed)
(e-mail address removed)

When these messages filter into the inbox they all say that they are to the
default mail box email account. Is there a way to show who the messages are
to and also reply as that account?

How many accounts do you have defined in Outlook? If only one, then these
addresses are all aliases and, as far as Outlook is concerned, the same
name. You can certainly create multiple accounts in Outlook and specify a
different sender address for each, using the Accounts button to choose the
correct address to be used as sender.

There are usually about 3 - aliases i guess is the proper term for them. Is
the only option to create a mailbox for each and set that mail box up in each
clients outlook?

I have seen some in some other posts. Do you recommend any? Why would this
not be possible in Exchange?

Exchange doesn't support sending from a non-default address. It's handled by
the account / AD and right or wrong, that's just how it's always been. I
don't know why, go ask someone in the exchange groups.

I make an imap account to use with other addresses and select the account or
have mail for those addresses delivered to a public folder and give myself
send as permission then use the PF address in the from field. The only
utility I've tested that I think will do this (the version I tested didn't,
but if I read the update information correctly it was added) is Lucatec Mask
