Hey Guys,

I would appriecate any help you guys could give me! I am starting my own very small business, I have SBS2003 running with Exchange. However, due to cablevision restrictions I can't run my email through exchange. Instead I host my mail and pop it down to the exchange server. From outlook everything runs fine, I can select the account I want to send from and it sends great! The problem is when I try to use OWA. It trys to send from the exchange account which work won't, I vaguely remember an option to select which account to send from, but I don't know where/when/how.

Any suggestions would be great! Thanks!

actually you can send mail through their out going mail ports if thats what your talking about. i use thunderbird and i set my out going smtp settings to optimum onlines (cablevisions) settings and it worked. i dont know anything about OWA but if your looking for a reliable mail client I would go with Mozilla Thunderbird. It's an amazing mail client program.

Actually, that's not quite what he's talking about. He's running his own mail server, not client.

Unfortunately, I'm not really as up on Exchange server as I should be..
