Hi,

I have set up Outlook 2007 with 3 e-mail accounts: 2 POP3 accounts and 1 Exchange account.

I want one of the POP3 accounts to be the default account for sending/receiving, and then simply store the e-mail in the Exchange mailbox.

I set the desired POP3 account as default, and all works fine. But after some time, the Exchange account sets itself as primary, which I do not want. I set POP3 as default, and Exchange becomes default again.

Annoying. How do I fix this?

in the user's properties, under Email Addresses, turn off 'Automatically update email address using email policy'

Ah, of course! I had totally forgotten that setting. I'll give it a try. Thanks!
