I have successfully downloaded and installed outlook connector to help manage
multiple hotmail/live accounts. Everything seems to work as expected as far
as receiving new mail, viewing contacts, etc. However, I cannot seem to be
able to send mail from a specific account. Is it even possible to choose
which account the mail is sent from? If so, how?

Example of what I am looking to do. Say I have my default email account,
then I add and so that I can manage all
three accounts in one interface. Now, I want to send a new message from
and not the default acct. I can't seem to pick the live
account for the new message. Is there a way to do this without changing the
'default' address?

Thanks in advance for help.

What version of Outlook are you using? Do you see the Accounts button?
What happens when you use that option to change the sending account?
