We do exactly this function using several mailboxes on our Cyrus IMAP server using MS Outlook Express (and it can probably be done on Outlook 2000 which understands IMAP) We established several accounts ie webmaster@bytecraftsystems.com, sales@ ..., service@ .... etc, and you then add these accounts to your ooutlook client.. Then when you are in the appropriate inbox, and send new mail the sender appears to be webmaster@... etc. In fact you actually get a pull down list in the From field of the email being created, and you can choose "who to send as" on the fly, so you can send email as anyone you operate accounts for in the outlook client Obviously you need access to the accounts via the usual account password systems in order to add the accounts to your outlook client in the first place. > From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Mon Apr 15 03:03:52 2002 > Date: Sat, 13 Apr 2002 16:44:56 -0400 (EDT) > From: "W.
