I have several e-mail accounts set up in my profile for my various ventures.
I have a default account for domain 1, my business e-mail account.

I have 2 other accounts for personal e-mail. One is for my ISP and the
other is for my college alumni account. The Alumni account is an
auto-forwarder that sends messages to my ISP.

When I respond to mail from either my ISP or my Alumni account, it always
defaults to making the sender my ISP e-mail address. How do I change the
default to the Alumni account? I've tried to change the order in the Data
Files section, but this doesn't help.

Thanks,
Steve

because the alumni acct is forwarded to the isp acct, replies will use the
isp acct and you'll need to select the alumni acct.

Is it worth creating a 2nd profile for the Alumni Account just to ensure that
I'll respond to all those messages a certain way and not have to remember to
change the sender? Will that work?

it will work but you'll need to leave mail on server so both profiles can
download it. Would a flag be enough to remind you? You can create a rule to
look for words in the header and set a flag. Moving the messages to a
separate folder may make it easier to remember also.
