Outlook / Exchange Q?: How to remove "Exchange Account" option 4 send.

[DSect]

Quick question:

I have an IMAP server for internet mail and an Exchange 2K server that I use for various other things.

In order for people to use the stuff on the exchange server, I have to "add" it as an account to Outlook.

Here's the problem: The Exchange server is not a real mail server. People should use the IMAP server 100% of the time. Sometimes, they will wind up sending out an email using thier exchange account - this causes the mail to go out, but no one can send back to the address because it's blocked @ the fwall.

Here's the question:

Can I keep the "exchange" account and all of it's features (mailbox, public folders) and NOT have it be an "account" that's available for sending mail?

Example: I'd have 2 mail accounts, one IMAP and one EXCHANGE - Is there a way to set it in Outlook (or exchange?) so that I CANNOT choose "Microsoft Exchange Server" as one of the "Accounts" when composing a new message?

Thanks.. I'm kinda new @ outlook / exchange and I haven't found a way to do this, without losing the features of having the exchange account "installed" on users outlook.

PS -

Here's an image of what's going on:

Any way to remove "Microsoft Exchange Server" from that "Accounts" list and still be able to access public folders and stuff??

People choose it somehow by accident. I'd like to prevent that.

Thanks!
