Pop3 accounts with exchange and global address lists

[limitup77]

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help with this: We have Windows 2000 running in our small office. We would like to have exchange put in to get shared features like calendars etc. Due to all the mobile users we want to use individual pop3 accounts to collect emails. These would then be stored in exchange folders (on or offline) However, we would like to stop emails being sent internally via the Global Address List and ensure there are sent externally via pop3, allowing the mobile users to collect them via dialup to their pop3 accounts. Anyone know how this can be done?

Thanks

Alternatively can anyone recomment software that could be used in place of exchange that will allow public folder creation and shared calendars?

Several things. First, Exchange can supply POP3 accounts to your external users through either RAS or via TCP/IP. You can also set up Outlook Web Access that will allow external users to access Exchange mail accounts via a browser.

ALso, you can set up custom recipients that provide for email addresses using your domain name, but do an auto-forward to an external email account.
