Help, Lotus Notes experts:

I want to be able to manage my personal and work email through the
same Lotus Notes account.  Here's the dilemma:

My work email (work@workplace.com) is a Lotus Notes account.  My
personal email isn't really an account at all -- it's a forwarding
address (me@alumni-forwarding.com).  It's easy to point my forwarding
address to my new Notes email account.  Receiving email is fine.

The problem is trying to *send* email.  I want to be able to choose to
make it look like my email is coming from my personal account.  (Not
just the reply-to address, but the *FROM* field).  At my old work,
where we used the IMP webmail client (http://www.horde.org/imp/), this
was really easy.  I just set up two 'identities', one for work and one
for play.

I can't figure out how to do this in Notes.  Any solutions?

To change your Internet address used when sending e-mail, you must
edit your location document (File/Preferences/Location Preferences).
On the Basics tab, you must edit the field 'Internet mail address'.
After this change, this address will be used for sending external
e-mails.

You can create two location documents with different identities and
switch between them to change your internet e-mail address.

Be carefull that some Lotus Notes Systems automatically change this
field at each login to the internet address stored into the
organisation address book. This option prevent errors in addresses and
help changing addresses. This option is not activated in all lotus
Notes systems.
