The first part is very easy - receiving If you're using Exchange 2003, this is done by using recipient policies. http://www.msexchange.org/tutorials/Implementing-Custom-Recipient-Policies.html If you're using Exchange 2007 this is done by using email address policies http://www.msexchange.org/articles_tutorials/exchange-server-2007/management-administration/managing-email-address-policies.html You can also go on a case by case basis, edit the user properties, adding an additional smtp address to each user. The problem is with the second part - sending. While you can add multiple smtp addresses to each user, a user can only have one "primary" or "reply" address. to send as a second smtp address, you would need to setup outlook with another smtp account, and relay through exchange smtp. That can get pretty confusing, but let us know if you need more detail.
