Gmail - Send using a domain alias without the "On Behalf Of" message

I recently set up a second domain as an alias in my google apps account.  The setup was easy, except that when anyone received an email in outlook it would have the email alias "On Behalf Of" the non-alias account.  Most people stated that you just need to pay for the premium subscription, but this is NOT true.  The final solution that worked is to set up the alias to send through a "different" smtp server that is really just the original smtp server.

Refresh SSMS Sql Server Intellisense Autocorrect

To refresh the intellisense after adding a new table or columns, is actually pretty easy.  I used to end up restarting SSMS, but no more!

There are two ways to refresh the cache: 
1) Go to Edit -> IntelliSense -> Refresh Local Cache 
2) Hit Ctrl+Shift+R

SSIS Toolbox Empty

If you see the toolbox is empty when working in SSIS, it is because it uses a seperate SSIS Toolbox.  Click on the Control Flow, and in the far right of the window is an icon to display the SSIS Toolbox.  More details (including pictures) can be found in the link below:

Connect to localhost WCF Webservice in compact framework application( Wince)

1)  Add url into hosts file pointing to the customurl you want to use instead of localhost( ie:  localdev.mycompany.com)

Update:  With visual studio 2015 the IIS config file is moved into your local  project folder.
Path is:     ProjectFolder\.vs\config

Edit applicationhost.config.

Edit site binding to look like:
 <binding protocol="http" bindingInformation="*:59254:mycustomurl" />
