Thanks for the answer. I was kinda expecting the third party answer from my
lack of finding an answer elsewhere.
However, I realize I failed to define my OWA thought properly. What prompted
this whole search is that I have the users "Exchange" profile configured with
POP3 accounts, and of course the mail goes into the mail Inbox. However,
someone needs to be at the client and open it up, or hit "Send/Receive" to
get the mail. When they log into OWA from a remote location, you can see the
email that was gathered from that Outlook client previously, but there
doesn’t seem to be a way to get new mail as those POP3 additions to that
clients profile are local to that machine, so not accessible via OWA.
This caused me to try and get email for these domains routed directly into
their Inbox, but then my previously stated observation and dilemma came about.
Then again, perhaps I'm approaching this the wrong way, I don't know.
