Outlook 2003. I have two email accounts and want to be able to send
all emails to johndoe... with the non-default email account without
selecting it every time. I tried creating a rule, yet it still sends
the email via the default account. Any ideas? Thanks.

Outlook will always send new messages via the default mail account unless you
either change the account manually or you set up a template for the e-mail
message which specifies a different sending account. You can save a template
to your hard drive...disable Word as your e-mail editor temporarily (if
you're using it), create a new mail message and set it up as you want it,
then click File | Save As and save it as an Outlook message template (.oft).
To send a new message based on the template, browse to the .oft file in
Windows Explorer and double-click it.
