Outlook 2003 help: With multipe e-mail account

[Anthony Lee]

Hello all,

I have setup Outlook 2003 to access the e-mail accounts from my ISP and
hotmail.

In Outlook Express, if the highlight is in the Hotmail accout, then the
"From Address" of the new mesage will use my hotmail account. And if the
highlight is in my isp accout, then the new message would have my isp accout
as the "From Address".

However, in Outlook 2003, the new message seems to always use my isp account
as the "From Address". Not sure if this is because I set up my isp account
as the default.

I want to know if it is possible to setup Outlook 2003 to be like Outlook
Express where it has different "From Address" for new outgoing mail?

If this question has been asked before and the answer is in some doc, simply
just pointing me to that doc.

Thanks,
Anthony

Outlook will use the defined default account for new messages and will reply
using the sending account of the received message. To change either
behavior, use the Accounts dropdown to specify the sending account.
