I have multiple email accounts set up in Outlook 2002. Some of which are receive only as I have two ISP's. When I select reply to a message it appears to randomly select any account to use as the reply sender. As some are the wrong ISP they fail. Sending normally always uses the default account. Is there any way of making Reply select only the default account?

Open Outlook and select:

Tools then select accounts now choose the mail tab.
Highlight the account you want to use and select default mail account at the right hand side.
This works in Outlook Express and MS Outlook.
Hope this helps

Thanks anyway but I require the reply function to automatically reply to the default mail account. Reply currently selects any account randomly. That is the problem I am trying to resolve.

Another way I make sure I'm replying or sending from the correct email account is to click file in your email. Then click the drop down arrows at the bottom of the list. Then you will see "Send Using". Next to that will be your list of addresses. Click the one you want. This works in Outlook 2000 anyway. Hope that helps.
