Outlook Outlook express replies with the default account

I have a problem with outlook express. I have about 8 accounts set up in Outlook express. Whenever i reply it always uses the default mail account and not the email account the original message came to.

That is the way it works.


Unless someone can come up with a better idea ... change the "default" to the email address you need to use.

I think if you have multiple accounts available in Outlook Express then you will get a drop-down for the "From" on any email that you send, and you can simply choose from that list.

Of course this is NOT the way it works. On all other computers i have used in the past and computers my friends use, you always reply to an email with the same account the email came to !!!!if for example the email came to (e-mail address removed) and you press reply, the from line should be (e-mail address removed) and not (e-mail address removed) which is the default email account.
