How can you "send from" in Entourage

Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) Processor: Intel Email Client: pop Complete computer noob here, so bare with me.

At any rate, I have two email addresses, but only one of them is synced with entourage. We'll call that email address "A". Instead of having the second email address, "B", synced with Entourage, I just have it set to permanent forward to A, so that emails sent to either address appear in one inbox on Entourage.

My question is, is there a way to compose email addresses from Entourage, and have it appear as if it's sent from B? I need some of my business emails to be sent from B, but I'd like to do this without logging onto the mail client and what not.

Thanks in advance for your help.

I¹m not sure I understand exactly what you intend BUT, I have 5 email
addresses from my ISP, each used by different family members. Therefore
there are 5 Entourage accounts, one for each email address. One is selected
as the default address, but when composing an email this default address can
be changed to any of the other accounts.
As far as receiving emails meant for one of the email addresses then I have
set a number of filters to send emails, for each different email address, to
a different sub-folder of the Inbox.

Go to Tools --> Accounts... and create new account with settings
identical to those of your first account.

Change the account name at the top of the window to something slightly
different from the first so that you can identify it.

UNcheck the option to add this account to your send/receive settings. No
need for this account to check for new messages since the first one is
already doing that.

Change any of the other information you wish such as your name and
E-mail address. Save your settings.

Whenever you want to send from the second account you can begin
composing a new mail message and select the second account from the From
drop down menu at the top.

Hope this helps!
