Not using Dafault account on forwards/replies

Outlook 2007 does not use the default account to sent out mail when replying
or forwarding mail, outomatically chooses a non dafault account.

If the email has been received in a non-default account, then the DEFAULT
behaviour of Outlook is to reply or forward from that account - that's
ALWAYS been the case.

It's not ALWAYS for me. More like ALMOST NEVER.

In Outlook 2007, I have a POP account set as the default. Almost all
my business email comes in to that account. I have an IMAP account
which is non-default. New messages default to send via the POP
account, but replies usually (but not always) default to the IMAP,
even for messages sent to the default POP account. So, I have to
continually do a manual account reset for replies, which is a pain.
Any idea why this would happen? Any fix (aside from deleting the IMAP
account)? I'd be happy if Outlook would just reply via the account
a message came in on. I didn't have this problem with Outlook 2003;
it only started when I "upgraded."
