Default Outlook Express Reply Problem

A reply will use the account that the message was sent to regardless of
which one is set as the default account. You would have to use the drop-down
arrow to change it.

I have 2 Verizon email accounts. When I do a Reply (or Reply All or
Forward) in Outlook Express, the From: address will be either of the 2
accounts with no apparent pattern. The Reply Address in
ToolsAccountsProperties is set to the default address for both accounts.
I have Trend Micro Anti-Spam and Symantec anti-Virus email scanning but the
behavior persists even if I uninstall/disable them. I have OE 6, IE7,
Windows XP Pro SP2. As an example I received 2 emails from the same person
a week apart. If I Reply to one, the From: address is the default; if I
Reply to the other, the From: address is the non-default address. Any help
to make the From: address consistent, predictable, and configurable would
be appreciated.
