reply address...when multiple email are available

S

scott

I'm using an email service, cbeyond, where I created multiple email accounts
that are forwarded to one account...the one account is configured to be
received by Outlook. Everything works well...the email account to which the
messsage was sent appears appropriately (it can be one of three). My problem
is that when a reply is sent all replies display the one account...not the
one to which it was sent.

Is there a setting that allows my email "from" email address will be, by
default, the one to which the original message was sent (again, this can be
one of three addresses)?

You're confusing "accounts" and "mail addresses". Mail addresses that are
all aliases of one another all deliver to a single mailbox and Outlook
doesn't may any attention to the mail addresses, only the account by which a
message is received. In the case you describe, you'll have to manually
choose the account having the mail address you wan to appear as the sender
address.

Nope, the default is to reply using the account (Outlook's definition of
account) by which the message was received regardless of the address.
