Substituting email account info

[Guest]

I have a professional website that receives email to my business email
address. I can have that automatically forwarded to my personal email
account. The problem with this is that when I respond to these business
emails, the recipient sees my personal email address, rather than my business
email address. Is there some way to configure my Outlook 2002 so that when I
return email to clients, it looks like I'm sending it from my business email
account?

(I am just poking about in the Office section. Someone may have another
response.)

Why not just setup a second account in Outlook so that you have one for your
personal email and one for your business email that way you needn't forward
it at all and when you hit reply it will automatically reply from the proper
account?

I don't want to do that because of the domain name. My business domain is my
name and I want to maintain that domain name as it is part of my marketing.

For example: The mail is forwarded from (e-mail address removed)
It arrives in my personal Outlook email at (e-mail address removed). I'd like to
send it through the pacbell server with it appearing to have been sent from
the myname.com domain.

Thanks for the tip though. I appreciate it.

The closest you can likely come to that would be to put your (e-mail address removed)
in the organization and reply to addresses, that way it will (at cursory
look) show the address. Unless your ISP (for this we'll use ISP to mean only
the people you connect through as opposed to ISP also covering web hosts as
it has been known to do in the past) works heavily with setting up mail
records for you and adjusts the MX records or the likes I can't think of any
way to make what you're asking for happen.

Well, this is interesting. I made the change you suggested and have the
problem half fixed. When my email arrives it shows it was sent from my
personal email account (which I prefer it did not). However, when the
recipient replies, it is sent to my business accountn (which is what I want).

I'd appreciate it if anyone know how to make it look as if the email from my
personal account look like it was sent from my business account.

Thanks Galen. I appreciate your help.
