Default OL 2007. Email identities. Reply to mail from differing addresses?

Hi.

The heading doesn't properly explain it. This is complicated for me
so please excuse the long post.

I have a domain with several addresses, all of which are only read by
me. I wish to use outlook 2007 to control this mail.

The domain, which I shall call for now "thedomain.com", can have as
many pop3 logins as I wish. But to simplify things I have just one at
the moment. I'll call it "domainpop" for now. It's a matter of
seconds to add new ones, that is no problem.

I can, however, have as many aliases as I wish in a pop3 login. So,
points to "domainpop" as does ,
, and anyone else I wish to
create.

In outlook 2007 I have one email account which collects mail from
"domainpop". (Yes, I know I can make more accounts.) Therefore, if you
address a mail to webmaster, jki, info, mike or anyone else
@thedomain.com it will all be downloaded to the same outlook2007
inbox. Not a problem, if I can I want to keep it all in one place.

But as the account in outlook has got a 'reply to' address built in to
it's settings, (currently ") it means that if I
receive a mail addresses to "webmaster", it is replied from "info". If
I receive a mail addressed to "mike" it is replied from "info".
They're all replied to from "info" or whatever else I choose for the
account. There is no continuity.

The million pound question: Is there a way to force the 'reply to'
address to change depending on the 'to' address on the email that I
received, staying within the a single outlook 2007 account? A filter,
maybe?

Of course, I could set up different pop3 mail boxes for each address.
But I would like to have one single outlook account, *if possible*,
not several and have to change between them.

Does this all make sense? Can it be done?

Thanks for your help.
