Manage Microsoft's Windows Small Business Server 2003 e-mail accounts

Add a new user e-mail address
Occasionally you'll encounter a user that needs to send or receive e-mail from multiple e-mail addresses. To add secondary e-mail addresses for a user, follow these steps:

  1. Log on to the SBS 2003 server as a member of the Domain Admins group.
  2. Open the Server Management console.
  3. Select Users.
  4. From the details pane on the right, highlight the user name that will receive the new e-mail account.
  5. Click Change User Properties (and the users' Properties dialog box will appear).
  6. Highlight the E-mail Addresses tab (Figure F).

Highlight the E-mail Addresses tab to configure a new or secondary e-mail address for a user.
  1. Click the New button.
  2. The New E-mail Address dialog box appears. Specify the type of e-mail address you wish to create and click OK (for this example I'll create an SMTP address, Figure G).

From the New E-mail Address dialog box, specify the type of e-mail address you wish to create.
