This is the stupidess thing I have ever seen - Replies with wrong email address ???

[ballzach]

Hello ! I am new here, FYI I recently switched from Thunderbird to OE6
no problems, until now.
It is replying to the wrong email address, no matter what I hav
tried.... (When I set up a message filter rule, to either forward o
reply to a message, there is no option for which email address to us
while sending it, so it keeps using the wrong one, which is NOT th
default)

I have several pop accounts set up in my OE6, one of which I have tw
accounts that use the same server. (different email addresses though)
So we will say I have email1, email2, email3 (2 and 3 use the sam
server)

When I set up for a message to be, for example, replied t
'(e-mail address removed)', it tries to reply the message using my Email
account, EVEN THOUGH my Email2 account is set as default...

Ok, so I removed email3 acount and made sure email2 was defualt -
deleted all the filter rules and re-made them using Email2 to ensure i
wasnt somethign stupid like that. When only using this one account, i
works the way I want it to, and uses email2 to reply the message.

Except, when I go back and re-add email3 (Even doing everythin
manually and naming it different) it just starts using my email
instead of the default email2 again ??!?!! WTF ??? Even though email
is still default...

So now I thought i was alphabetical. Since both email2 and email3 ar
on the same server, I thought mayby email3 was being used because it i
ladder in order. SO, I removed email2 completely, and on top of email3
now added a new email4, and set email4 to default. (This means that m
old email2 is now a completely new address, email4, which superseed
email3 and was even added AFTER email 3 was, and set to default. Kee
in mind that at NO POINT in this agrivation has email3 ever been set t
default)

BUT, Even with the brand new email4, It still uses email3 as th
defualt reply. ALTHOUGH when you click 'new message' email4 is th
defualt.
!?!?!?! WTF ? this is stupid, right ?

I am completely dumbfounded as to HOW and WHY this is doing this, an
hope that somebody has an idea how to fix it ??

Lol, this is seriosuly one of the stupidest things I have ever see
(Next to Thunderbirds' message filters)

Thanks

if you head off to an Outlook Express newsgroup you might get a response.

Would you expect a newsgroup dedicated to MathCAD or WordPerfect to
answer a question about Word?

Although the answer was short and to the point, Vandard wasn't trying
to be rude. These newsgroups are read by people who are familiar with
various software products and who will take the time to answer
questions BUT the people who are familiar with Outlook Express hang out
in a different newsgroup and may not see your post unless you post in
an OE newsgroup. People here may not even use OE, I know I don't and I
can't help you with your problem but if you'll go to:

microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress

there'll be someone there who can help, I'm sure.
