2 exchange accounts, from field

[Tommy Forsman]

Hi
I have 2 mailboxes (exchange) in outlook 2003. When I create mail, it always
uses mailbox A as default and the from: field is not visible. When I reply a
mail that is in mailbox B the from: field is visible.

Is it possible to enable the from field always so that I can choose from
which account I will send mail?

Open a new message, and select View | From Field
(presuming you aren't using Word as e-mail editor)
should make it show up all the time.
Close the message, open a new one and check.

Note that in OL2003, it is smart enough to presume you want to reply from
the account/address to which the original message was sent. You can change
this when you see the from field.
