This is only happening on my wifes system.
Outlook express, winxp. She has 3 e-mail address'. mom@xxxx, pat@xxxx, Pat@xxxx Pat@xxxx is set as default. When she replies to an e-mail, in the "From:" box it's always mom@xxxx. I've had her check in property/details that the original e-mail is coming in to Pat@xxx or pat@xxxx. She is manually changing the From: box to Pat@xxxx but this is a pain to remember. On our other systems, the from: is whichever the e-mail is sent to. suggestions please, |

It sounds like the all 3 accounts (addresses) are aliases for the same
mailbox. Assuming I'm correct, WYSIWYG. I don't know what's the default Mail Client on your "other systems" but I'd very much doubt it's OE if she's accessing all three accounts in the client and is not seeing the same behavior. In short: OE places the default address (i.e., Pat@xxxx) in the From line when Replying to or Forwarding a message sent to either of the other addresses. -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-IE, Mail, Security, Windows Client - since 2002 L.S. wrote: This is only happening on my wifes system.

The default Mail Client is OE on all systems.
Just got back from home and when I click "reply" it replies with the e-mail that was sent to. On this system it does the same. I have lewis@xxxx, Lewis@xxxx, dad@xxxx with Lewis@xxxx being default. If an e-mail comes in to dad@xxx and I hit reply, the "from:" box has dad@xxxx. If it came to lewis@xxxx that's what's in the From: box when I hit reply. Pat's is the only one that doesn't do that. All replies have mom@xxxx no matter what came in.... Will run a couple of text and report back. I'm going to delete the mom@xxxx and change the default a couple of times and see what happens. L.

All 3 of the @comcrap.net are the same.
I deleted the mom@xxxx, reset the default to Pat@xxxx, reinstalled mom@xxx and now the Pat@xxx is working ok. Go figure. L. "PA Bear [MS MVP]" wrote in message ... Pat's is the only one that doesn't do that. All replies have mom@xxxx no matter what came in.... Is the @xxxx part of all three (3) addresses the same (e.g., , , [the last two of which may point to the same account] ? Does the behavior persist with all three (3) addresses running in a new identity on the same computer? -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-IE, Mail, Security, Windows Client - since 2002 L.S. wrote: The default Mail Client is OE on all systems.

May I assume you did not create all three (3) addresses yourself and that
there's a separate web-mail page for each account? Are they all accounts and is your ISP a Yahoo Partner (e.g., Verizon; ATT/SWBell)? L.S. wrote: All 3 of the @comcrap.net are the same.
