No, you can't assign a sending account to a contact. You could save
templates with an account selected but you'd need to remember to choose the
correct template when composing.

I have two email accounts, one is POP3 (lets call this Account 1) and the
other a MAPI (e.g. Accout 2). My default accout is the POP3.

When I download email, the received emails go into the correct folders,
that
is to say Account 1 email goes in the Busines Folders Inbox and Account 2
mail goes in the Account 2 Inbox folder. No problem there, it works as
expect.

This issues is this: If I write an email on Account 2 and just click send
(remember, account 1 is the POP3 account is default) the email is received
as coming from Account 1. If they reply, it comes back to me as an email
sent to Account 1. This is very confusion to the people receiveing my
email
and to me because it shows account 1's email address instead of account
2's
email address.

I realize that each time I write an email in WORD, i can define which
account is sending it (from the Accounts icon on the email toolbar, but
this
isn't very practical to do each time.

Is there a way to automatically send from the correct account when I write
an email? The is important so the receipeint sees the correct email it is
coming from.

I am using the latest outlook/word with all the latest updates.

Thanks
Bob
