Hi - I have an address from my alma mater that I wish to use, but it only has
forwarding capabilities. I have it forwarding to my yahoo account, and I have
Outlook 2002 set up send/receive from this account. However, I want all my
emails to say "reply-to: 'my school address here' ". I cannot create a new
account for my university address because it does not have an
incoming/outgoing server, as it is only able to send/receive messages through
an existing account. Any thoughts? Thanks!

In your mail account properties, specify your university address as the
reply address.

I can't seem to find such an option. Can you provide any more
guidance?

It's in your account properties. Press the "More settings" button - there
should be a 'reply e-mail' field.
 
Wow, don't know how I missed that - Thanks!

You're welcome - and yes, it's easy to miss that you need to use the 'more
settings' button. I think it was designed to simplify the window/interface,
but I find it often confuses people more.
