I was on the verge of writing in to ask how I could get Entourage X to
self-address replies so that they are sent from the account to which the
original message was addressed. Realising this was a bit of an RTFM
question, I looked in the help pages (as there is no FM) and found the bit
about unchecking the 'Reply using default account' option on the 'Reply &
Forward' pane of the Mail & News Prefs dialog.

Great! Job done! Or not. When I tried it out, the accounts that Entourage
chose to send my replies from were stupidly to cock, in nearly every case.

Perhaps I have too many mail accounts. (I have 9 different account setups in
Entourage - some of these are alternative addresses belonging to the same
account, some are variants of the same account with different sigs &
configs. It all boils down to 2 accounts with different ISPs, and a dot mac
account that's set up to redirect through one of the ISPs.)

I can see how Entourage might get confused by mac.com mail that has been
channelled through a 'real' ISP, but why, when I reply to a message that has
been sent to my primary ntlworld account, does Entourage fill in the 'from'
field with details of a secondary, seldom-used account with the same ISP?

All of which leads me back to my original question: how can I get Entourage
X to self-address replies so that they are sent from the account with which
the original message was received?
