Different "from" address

I have setup several oop3 accounts in Outlook 2003. I always want the
same e-mail address to display in the "From" section of the sent
e-mail. I have configured each account to display this same e-mail
address in the From section (which also happens to be a POP3 account).


Problem:

I notice that while the email I am sending does contain "Please Reply
To:" and uses the correct e-mail address it ALSO displays the e-mail
account that the message was actually sent from.

Ex: (e-mail address removed) "Please respond to: (e-mail address removed)"

(e-mail address removed) is the actual account I sent the email from. (e-mail address removed)
is the account I want displayed on the message.

Is there any way I can strip out the actual e-mail account the message
was sent from?

I'm certainly not going to help anyone disguise the identity of the sender.
I already receive over 50 of these a day. When you mail letters in the
Postal Service, do you put someone elses name and address in the return
address part of the envelope?
 
Not unless you use separate profiles for each mail account.

Then configure each of your accounts to use the same sender address.

Chuck, your postal service analogy is a poor one. I DO WANT my
DESIGNATED address to display as the sender. I do NOT want the message
to be cluttered with whichever of my several e-mail accounts I happened
to choose to send the e-mail from. My problem is that some of my
clients can't receive e-mail from my preferred e-mail account. (I have
no problem receiving their e-mails). I have no idea why and neither I
nor my clients have the expertise to diagnose the problem. So I use
another email account that hopefully my client can receive email from.
But I don't want the e-mail message cluttered up with various email
accounts. Hence my original question. Alas there is nothing sinister
involved.

If you are insinuating I want to send spam, then I would definitely be
the most inept spammer on the net. I wouldn't have a clue. If you did
not want to help, then silence rather than making an assumption would
have been a better choice for you. You know what happens when you make
assumptions......

Believe me, having to fool around with this is a pain. If my e-mail
account of choice would work properly then I would celebrate.
Eventually, I guess I will switch e-mail providers which means I'll
have to switch domains, I don't own the domain.

Finally, thanks to the others who provided some insight. I'll try the
profile idea.
