Multiple Email Accounts - Setting the Default for replies

[Ian Turk]

I am running outlook 2002 on xp professional.

I work on behalf of several clients, and while most of the time I send
emails through my own account, I do have a number of accounts set up for
when I prefer to show email as having come from one of my clients - eg
emailed newsletter.

The problem for me is that sporadically I find that emails go out through an
account which is not the default account, and I do not understand the eason
why. It appears that if I reply to an email then that reply is sent using
the account that I last used - which can be embarrassing if I forget to
check.

Can anyone please confirm why this may be happening, can I set the default
account to be the one which is used to send all emails, including replies,
unless I specifiy an alternate account.

Many Thanks

Ian

Outlook will reply using the account that was used in the email you are
replying to (unless you physically change the account in your reply---it
defaults to the account the sender used).
