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.

And, as far as Outlook is concerned, all these aliases are actually the same
account.

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?

No.

Of course, I could set up different pop3 mail boxes for each address.

And that won't help, either, because all the messages are in the same
mailbox. No matter which account you were to use to connect to that
mailbox, Outlook would download all the messages in it, no matter which
address was the receiving address, because POP protocols don't wotrk on
receiving address. The client says, "How many new messages do you have?",
the server says "I have X new messages," and the client says, "OK, send me X
new messages.". No option in there at all for specifying "send only the new
messages received by address a@b". If Outlook could do that, then you'd
just create a separate account in Outlook for each address and Outlook would
receive only those messages received by a particular address, which would
cause Outlook to reply using that receiving account.

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?

Nope.

Sigh. So much for MY christmas pressie from you then. Thanks. I
didn't hold out much hope, really.
