How do I change the default return address?

In Outlook I have three e-mail accounts set up. When I receive an e-mail in
any of the accounts, when I hit "reply", it always defaults to sending the
reply from my default account, rather than the account that received the
message. How do I fix this so that the reply come from the account where I
got the message?
Thanks,

Outlook should always reply (or forward) using the account that received the
message (unless Exchange is part of the mix). Are your multiple mail
addresses actually aliases of each other? Add the "E-mail Account" field to
your view so you can see which account received the messages. I suspect
that you'll see they were all received by the same account. If not, though,
write back.
