Changing account user to send mail

[Steve O'Hara]

My Outlook has 2 email accounts in it's profile.
I have a VB COM Addin that monitors the MailItem Forward event to capture
emails that are being forwarded.
I check where they originated from and I want to choose which the email
account to be used for delibvery i.e. select automatically from the list you
get on the "Accounts" button.

I can't find any mention anywhere of how to access the account information,
let alone set it.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

Steve

Outlook doesn't provide any direct way to change the account for an outgoing message. See
