initial amount in outlook 2003 (sp2)

[padre]

Hi all, please be so kind and let me know your experience with amounts. I
have more accounts in Outlook and one of them is initial. If I receive email
and I am answering Outlook use not receiving account but it use initial
amount. There is a possibility to change sender account manually, but as I
remember, there was a function. Could you please somebody tell me how to
setup outlook?

If I understand you correctly...

When you reply to an email or create a new email in Outlook 2003, there is a
button called Accounts which has a drop down list of accounts available and
you can select the account to send from for that email.

outlook will reply on the account that received it - are you using a catch
all email account? Do you have the latest patches installed? There is a
problem if outlook can't authenticate with the SMTP server, it uses one it
can send on. I think a recent patch fixed it.

If you have more than one mail account defined in your mail profile, just
tot he right of the Send button on the Standard toolbar will be the Accounts
button that allows you to specify which account will be used to send the
message.
