We have multiple Business Units.

Some Users are really acting in multiple units and have
to be able to send email with different domain names.

In Exchange we can use the From: function when sending
emails with our multiple email addresses.

In CRM it doesn't seem like I can accomplish this when
sending an email.

Is there some way to accomplish this?

Thanks,

Doug

The only way I can think of is to create multiple CRM users for each user/BU
combo you need. You can choose from on a CRM email, but the from must be a
valid CRM user.

I tried that but when you click on the From user in the
email, it doesn't seem like the other users appear to
select.

Doug,

MSCRM really isn't designed to do what you are looking to do. The
mutliple login route could work, but 1) it will be costly as each user
will now need multiple licenses and 2) it would require the user to
logout and back in to CRM to switch "roles". From a usability
standpoint, this would not be acceptable to the user.

The problem you are hitting is that CRM assumes the mail is coming
from the user who is logged in and that the user will only have 1
email address.

Sorry,
Matt

Mike:

Thanks for the feedback.

It seems if you allow multiple Business Units, you need
to allow multiple email identities.

I understand the V1 issues, I sure hope that V2 can
consider some of these things.

Thanks,

Doug
