I'm using Outlook 2003 fully patched, ok I haven't patched the French grammer
checker and the infopath (neither of which I use) on Win XP Home SP2 fully
patched.

Anyhow, all my emails going out are showing up in the sent box with an
incorrect email address.

When I Create a New Message, one of the first things I do is select which
email account the email message is to go out from. I'm selecting my pop3
email account. (The check mark is beside the pop3 account!) I type in my
message, press the send button, and the email shows up in my sent box with a
hotmail account on the from line. It shows up in the recipient's box as
being from the hotmail account, not the pop3 account.
WHAT GIVES?

What gives is that for some reason Outlook can't send the message using the
account you specify and so it simply chooses another until it finds on e
that works. You will solve your problem when you discover what is wrong
with the account you're trying to use.
