Do you have the from address added in your account settings?

How can I check that? Thanks for responding.

This can be normal. I'm using Outlook via Exchange and it's empty. If you
send a message to yourself, is the From field populated? Or is it empty?

 

[Russ]

Joe,

Thanks it's blank. I have looked through all settings and I can't figure out
how to auto populate I have to manually enter in my email address in the FROM
field. No one else is having this issue but me. Any idea's?

Regards,

Russ

Ok, so some questions:

- What version of Outlook?
- What kind of email accounts do you have set up, and how many (POP3,
Exchange, etc)?
- If you have more than one account set up in Outlook, which account is set
as the default?

The From field has no meaning unless you're using an Exchange account. The
sender address of a message will be whatever address is defined for the
account with which you send the message.
