Becuase Exchange supports the SMTP namespace (as does Internet mail).

>From the OL2003 Help (this should do it):

If you have set up multiple e-mail accounts (e-mail account: The server
name, user name, password, and e-mail address used by Outlook to connect to
an e-mail service. You create the e-mail account in Outlook by using
information provided by your administrator or Internet service provider
(ISP).) in Microsoft Outlook, you can specify which account to use when
sending a message.

  1.. In the message, click Accounts.
  2.. Click the account you want to use.
Notes

  a.. By default, e-mail is sent by using the account specified as the
default in the E-Mail Accounts Wizard (Tools, E-mail Accounts command). For
example, your default account may be your work e-mail account, but you can
specify to send a message from another e-mail account, such as your personal
Internet service provider (ISP) (ISP: A business that provides access to the
Internet for such things as electronic mail, chat rooms, or use of the World
Wide Web. Some ISPs are multinational, offering access in many locations,
while others are limited to a specific region.) account.
  a.. Sending messages from your ISP account may require you to be connected
to that provider in order to receive permission to use the e-mail server.
Contact your network administrator or ISP for more information.
