Outlook Express 6 "From" Field
 

"If you have multiple e-mail accounts set up and you want to use one other
than your default account, click in the From box, and then click the e-mail
account you want to use. "

This is what it says in the help menu, but I can't, for the life of me, find
the "From box". How do I add this field to my message headers?

Outlook Express 6 "From" Field
 

Are these accounts using the same identity? If they are, open a new message
window and the From field is the first one under the toolbar. You only see
when creating a message, not in the normal OE window.

If your accounts are set up under different identities, you won't see this
an the address the recipient sees is the one you sent from.

The account has two different identities. It was working for me before, but I
recently reformatted the hard drive and I can't remember how I did it the
first time.

If you have two different accounts/e-mail addresses in different identities,
(Must switch identity to use the other), then there is no From field and the
identity/address you are in when you create a new message is the address the
recipient will see.

If you want them both in the same identity, then you have to remove one of
them, and while in the remaining OE identity add it back via Tools |
Accounts | Mail | New. The way it is now, the second address was added by
File | Identity | Add New Identity.
