Merge Mail to E-mail Address

[sinistralx]

Hello all, A quick query, hope someone can help shed some light on
this.

I log onto my PC at work and log onto our exchange server. I have
access to various mailboxes including my own using outlook.

I have setup word to send a merge mail to various e-mail addresses
which seems to work fine, however, I would like for the mails to come
'from' one of the other mailboxes as apposed to my own.

Is there a place in Word that I can change the 'sender' e-mail adress?

many thanks for your help

There's no way to do it in Word. The only way you could possibly do it would
be to have multiple e-mail profiles and
a. ensure that you are logged out of MAPI before you start Word
b. when you start the merge, you should be prompted for a profile - choose
the one with the sender address that you want

However, I am not even sure that that works or would not cause additional
problems.

I just did a test of this. I set up a second profile
using my Hotmail account (my first profile is an Exchange
Server account). I then sent a mail merge to my hotmail
and Exchange Server accounts. It worked great - I got the
mail merge from the hotmail account. Just don't forget to
change your profile back when you're done!
