managing accounts

[mary]

Hello, I know that when you send a new message you can
click on the "accounts" drop-down box to choose which
email account you would like the email to be sent from.
My question is, how can you name those accounts so that
you can easily choose the correct account you want to
send the new email from? Thank you!!!!

Hi Mary
In fac I can't even see my multiple emails that I have created in outlook. If I want to chose a specific email account to send my email with, how do I do that? There is no such drop down accounts list next to my send button.

Go to Tools | E-mail Options, select View or change existing e-mail
accounts, click Next, select the e-mail account and click Change, click More
Settings, and on the General tab, type the preferred name in the first box.
Do this for each e-mail account you want to assign a name to.

What version of Outlook are you using, and if 98 or 2000, what mail support
mode? If you're not sure, look at the second line of Help | About Microsoft
Outlook -- it should say "Internet Mail Only" or "Corporate/Workgroup".
(Outlook 97, 2002, and 2003 don't have separate modes.)
