sending as 'other user' - 3.Feb.2012 9:46:12 AM

I've read in multiple posts on different websites that Exchange 2010's deafult sending behavior is to send email from the primary email address on an account regardless of if I change the "from" field to a secondary SMTP account which is setup on the same user. I've tested this to be true but I'm unable to find documentation on it from Microsoft. Can anyone help with a technet link, etc?

thanks in advance

As far as I know it is not mentioned in MS docs.
Why do you need it? The documentation can not cover all aspects. Did you try to test Exchange behavior yourself?

Regards,

You mean this quote?:

"Set as Reply Click this button to set your selected address as the "reply to" address. A recipient can have multiple e-mail addresses for a specific address type. This allows the recipient to receive messages that are addressed to any one of these e-mail addresses. However, a single address must be used for any messages that are sent by the recipient. If a recipient has multiple e-mail addresses, the primary address is used for any messages sent by the recipient.
This button is available only when an address other than the primary address is selected. Primary addresses for each address type are displayed in bold type.
If an e-mail address policy in your Exchange organization applies to this mailbox, the Set as Reply setting will be controlled by that policy. To change the primary address for a specific address type, you must clear the Automatically update e-mail addresses based on e-mail address policy check box."
