Add an email address alias to an Exchange account

Just a very quick one. Most people probably know this already – but just to show how to add/manage email address aliases:

1. Fire up “Active Directory Users & Computers”
2. Locate the user and look at the objects properties
3. In the Email Addresses tab - you’ll have a list of various entries. All of the ‘SMTP’ type are email addresses / aliases. The one in bold is the primary account.
4. To add a new alias: click New, select ‘SMTP address’, click OK and enter the desired email address.

Simples!
