[webproducers] Re: anyone know Outlook?

Hi, Morry-

{{WARNING: Uninteresting non-topical thread below. People not

<grin>}}

As luck (!) would have it I had to deal with this exact issue this
week. Shucks, lucky us. :-) 

There are a couple options. It depends on whether you want to treat
this on a one-off basis or something more permanent.

Option 1: The one-off
> Open a new email.
> From the toolbar, select View|From Field
> When the From field is visible you can key-in an address or select it
from your address book, overriding your default mail settings.

Option 2: The permanent change
I don't know which OS and version of Outlook you're on but the steps
below should be accurate for W2K/XP and Outlook XP/2003. Previous
versions will vary slightly.

This change is actually part of your Mail Account settings

>> Within Outlook you can usually get to it from Tools|Email Accounts;
or from the Windows Control Panel select the "Mail" icon.
>> Select "View or Change existing accounts"
>> Select the account in question then click the "change" button.
>> Select "More Settings..."
>> This screen has several tabs. On the General tab change the "Reply
Email" field to the reply-to address of your choice.

Next time I see you on ICQ I'll ping you to see how it worked out.
