"On behalf of" nightmare

the IT guy who was in charge of our server is no longer with the company.
Now whenever any person in the company sends an email to anyone outside our
network in the FROM box it says "exemployee@domain on behalf of user@domain"
we have checked permissions, delegates, and hired an IT to figure it out but
no luck. How can we get this huy off of our emails??

Do you have any other filtering server for outgoing e-mail other then
your exchange? Like GFI mail essentials, or Surf Control?
Did you check the Outlook rules for outgoing?

Tim,

I had this problem with one of my customers SBS 2003 boxes. The message sent
would, from an external user, look as though it came from "sales@domain.com
on behalf of user@domain.com", where the company wanted the sent e-mail to
just look as though it had come from sales@domain.com.

The sales mail box is a normal users account in AD. The shared mail box used
by a number of internal users - they just add it as another mail-box in
thier Outlook view. The customer wanted the users e-mails to be anonymous
when sending e-mails - i.e. send from just sales@domain.com

There were 2 things I had to do to get this going right - both using AD
Users and Computers snap-in:

1) Find the AD user account for the shared mail box (Sales in my example).
On the Exchange Advanced tab, click the Mail box Rights button. In the list
of users, we added a "Sales E-mail Users" security group and gave it Full
mail box access. All the internal users that need access to the
sales@doamin.com user account are members of the "Sales E-mail Users" group.

2) Also within AD Users and Computers, there is a tab called Security. In
here we carried out the same steps as above.

The killer for me was that the Security tab is hidden in AD Users and
Computers by default - you first need to un-hide it. To do this, go to the
View menu within AD Users and Computers snap-in, and select Advanced
Features. Then re-open the user account for the shared mail box and you
should see the Security tab.

Regards,
Paul.
