This makes sense. So I changed the default account to a different ISP mailbox. Now I have account 1, account 2,and account 3 all configured to check the same ISP mailbox. None of them are the default account. When I respond to an e-mail sent to account 3, the reply is from account 2. > On 9/5/03 4:12 PM, "Diane Ross" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Open your contact info in the Address Book.

Same behavior - account 1 is default, both account 1 and account 2 go the same ISP mailbox, and when I reply to a mail sent to account 2 the reply account is account 1. Perhaps I just need to be totally attentive :-)) Thanks, Neil -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
