Send from multiple accounts

I'm using Outlook 2007. I have multiple email accounts setup (work, personal,
etc.). When I get a message to a particular email account and choose reply,
Outlook 2007 replies from my default email account. What I want is to have it
reply from the same account the message was sent to.

I understand that I can manually choose which account to use for each reply
using the "account" button, but I want it to be automatic. It used to be that
way in prior versions of Outlook.

This MS doc says so: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/287496

"Explicit rules are built into Outlook to determine which account should be
used as the default, (for example, when you reply to an e-mail message,
Outlook uses the account the e-mail message was originally sent to), or you
can assign a specific account for Outlook to use as the default."

That's the way it's supposed to work: replying using the same account that
received the original message. Do any of the multiple accounts connect to
the same mail server using the same username/password?
