Outlook 2003 - Pop3 Mode - Manage Multiple Domains in single box/PI have moved from an Exchange Server to a standalone Outlook 2003 system. On the exchange server I was able to manage multiple domains and the emails associated with them. I would like to do the same with just the Outlook client in Pop3 mode. I have multiple domain emails forwarding to a single Pop3 mailbox as my ISP. In order to setup the correct "Reply To" field in Outlook I can set up multiple accounts to send out on (by selecting from the drop-down Accounts list). However... The problem is with associating the "Reply To" field with incoming mail. The only way (it seems) to associate an account with the proper "Reply To" information is to have that account download the mail from the POP3 server at the ISP. However, if I do this, then EACH account downloads the mail from the server and I end up with 10 of the same message in my Inbox! I want to be able to have a single account download from the POP3 server into my Outlook mailbox, then either manually or, ideally, have Outlook determine the proper "Reply To" information based on the incoming/destination email address. But even if I manually choose the proper "From" account when I reply to the message, the internal "Reply To" information is the account that it was downloaded from. So I either have 10 duplicate emails, one of which has the proper internal "Reply To" information; or I can turn of downloading for 9 of 10 accounts, but not have the proper internal "Reply To" information. Setting up different profiles will not change the duplicate email downloading problem. Is there a way to resolve this and have just a single mailbox downloading multiple domains/email addresses from singe POP3 account, not have duplicate emails and retain and/or automate internal "Reply To" information. Thanks, Todd No, you now have a single account with a single mail address to which you
forward messages from other accounts and then you want to separate them into multiple "accounts" again. Instead of forwarding everything from other accounts to a single account, why not collect the emails from those accounts directly with Outlook? Then the original envelope is left in tact and Outlook will automatically reply with the correct mail account (and thus address) and you can select the account with the Accounts button. -- Show quoteHide quoteRobert Sparnaaij [MVP-Outlook] Coauthor, Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.howto-outlook.com/ Outlook FAQ, HowTo, Downloads, Add-Ins and more http://www.msoutlook.info/ Real World Questions, Real World Answers ----- "ToddC" <To***@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:E5F161FD-D114-4BD4-ADC4-621C18069485@microsoft.com... > Outlook 2003 - Pop3 Mode - Manage Multiple Domains in single box/PST. > > I have moved from an Exchange Server to a standalone Outlook 2003 system. > On the exchange server I was able to manage multiple domains and the > emails > associated with them.

Thanks for the response. My eMail addresses for multiple domains are forwarded via domain host -- they are not separate POP3 accounts, just separate eMail accounts/addresses (with different domains). So I can't just have each account download from some separate source of each eMail address -- all eMail is forwarded to my ISP address mailbox/inbox, from where I was hoping to download all eMails directly into Outlook (as I had previously done with Exchange, but Exchange allowed me to manage separate domains).

download the emails using the correct account. You can either do it by setting up each account to download from the single mailbox and getting duplicates (not recommended) or download directly from each account's mailbox (recommended). -- Show quoteHide quoteDiane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Outlook Tips by email: mailto:dailytips-subscribe-requ***@lists.outlooktips.net EMO - a weekly newsletter about Outlook and Exchange: mailto:EMO-NEWSLETTER-SUBSCRIBE-REQU***@PEACH.EASE.LSOFT.COM Let's Really Fix Outlook 2010 http://forums.slipstick.com/forumdisplay.php?f=34 "ToddC" <To***@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:E5F161FD-D114-4BD4-ADC4-621C18069485@microsoft.com... > Outlook 2003 - Pop3 Mode - Manage Multiple Domains in single box/PST. > > I have moved from an Exchange Server to a standalone Outlook 2003 system. > On the exchange server I was able to manage multiple domains and the > emails > associated with them.

I have created all of the eMail
accounts under a single profile/mailbox. Each of the accounts is set up for the same ISP account/mailbox. But in Send/Receive only one of those accounts is set to download mail; all other accounts are setup to only send mail. Whenever I send a reply eMail I will need to select the correct account from the Accounts drop-down to set the "From" and internal "Reply To" address, but that is workable.

Select each of the others one at a time and uncheck the box labeled "Receive mail items". That way only one account will download the messages during a send/receive. E-mail addresses and accounts don't need a one-to-one correspondence. Mailboxes and accounts, however, should have that relationship. You don't need to specify any "Reply-To" values. If each account has a separate mail sending address, then leave the Reply-To setting empty. The receipient will not be able to tell which of your accounts actually received the message as long as you choose the correct sending account when composing your reply. Just choose the sending account with the address you want the recipient to see. Why are you forwarding all your addresses to a simple mailbox? Don't aggregate them before Outlook gets them. Let Outlook aggregate them, downloading them from each of the individual mailboxes and you'll get only one copy of each message and since the receiving account will have the address to which the message was sent, when you reply, the sending address will automatically be the correct address because Outlook always uses the account with which a message is received for the sending account. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] Brian, Thanks for the reply and information.
Yes, I did figure this out to make it work for me. I am doing it this way because the addresses don't have a "mailbox" from which I am downloading except where they are aggregated at the ISP, because they are simply DNS/MX records that exist for that purpose...
