off course it is.

you got two ways of adding a webmail pop3 in exchange 2003.

1. use the "pop3 connector service" - where you can add your users, define login to their pop3 mail and rout mail to specified exchange boxes.
(note - you have to define a primary smtp server in each user's exchange properties: uers@company.com)
2. add a personal webmail in each user's outlook.

personally i prefer the second option, although the first is much more orginized and controlled via your server.

I am not sure that Sneakers answered the question.

If the exhange server hosts the mail and there is no pop3 account to connect to...

How does one get sam@ and sammy@ to go to the same Exchange mailbox? Most mail servers have a simple aliases list that allows one to enter a series of address as aliases, which have no real mailbox.

i.e, postmaster@mydomain.com=administrator@mydomain.com .

This gets everything for postmater to the administrator.

OK I found it. In user's properties one assigns multiple smtp addresses to the user.
