When replying to a message that has a "reply to" field
defined: is it possible to reply by sending a message to
the address specified in the "from" field instead of the
address defined in the "reply to" field?
(in outlook 2002)

Thanks
Philippe
 
By typing it yourself. Note that the sender defines the reply to field for a
reason.

Thank you for the suggestion, but not really what I hoped
to hear.

If you're part of a mailing list, the "reply to" field is
often added automatically, so everybody replies to the
list. But in some cases, you want to address the sender
personally (off-list), so it would be nice if you could do
this without having to retype the address.

I used to work with "pine", a very basic mail client that
seems to stam from a previous IT-age, but it already had
this option incorporated. Of course it dit not have the
other outlook functionalities ...
