I have set up some alias email addresses, under one main address, for family
accounts in Outlook Express 6, but one of our family members has a separate
Windows logon and is using Outlook for his emails. Is it possible to give an
alias email to his Outlook account from my Outlook Express?

I tried setting up the POP and SMTP info on Outlook as I had on OE, but it
did not work... got Error Message 553 - relaying denied from your location.

Any ideas? Thanks.

I'm not sure what you are doing, but you need to set the SMTP server to
whatever you are dialed up to in order to get rid of that error.

You lost me. An alias is an email address associated to an email account.
If your mail service provides aliases, you can have multiple email
addresses associated to a single mailbox. Alas, AFAIK, you can't _create_
aliases with MSOE, though you can use them. The alias is created on the
mail server. In fact, that is how I set up my Reply-To email address I used
with this post; set it up in Mercury/32, and pointed it to one of the
Mercury/32 accounts.

What happens when you have aliases is that they are all sent to the same
mailbox. When you run a POP3 download on that mailbox, all email in that
mailbox will be downloaded to the Local Folder Inbox for that POP3 account,
regardless of the email address. If your intent is to have different users
pulling email with different clients, and even Windows user accounts, you
will need a rather complex set of rules to sort the mail, including a
requirement to leave messages on the server. It would be much easier to
create separate email accounts, if your intent is to have different people
receiving their own email.
