Associating an account to an address

B

Blackwing97

Anyone know of a way to get Outlook 2007 to automatically set an alternate
account (one other than the "default") when sending an email to a specific
email address - I'm tired of a certain listserv rejecting my emails because I
forget to manually change the sending account address.

Would be nice if there were a setting in the address book entry to specify
"Send using account:..."

Thanks.

Create a new e-mail message with the sending e-mail account selected and the
recipient field filled in, then publish it as a template to your Personal
Forms Library.

To do this, in the new mail message window, first make sure the Developer
tab on the Ribbon is visible. If it isn't, click the Office button at the
top left corner, then Editor Options (on the bottom). In the Popular
section, check the box for "Show Developer tab in the Ribbon", then click OK.

Click the Developer tab, then the Publish button. Choose "Publish Form
As..." In the Look In dropdown box, choose Personal Forms Library. Give your
form the name of your choice and click Publish. To retrieve the template
later, click File | New | Choose Form, find the Personal Forms Library in the
Look in box, select your form and click Open.

I know this is kind of kludgy -- it was a lot easier to bring up a saved
Outlook Template file in earlier versions of Outlook, but security measures
in Outlook 2007 and in the latest service pack for Outlook 2003 do not allow
you to bring up form templates the old way. I added the Choose Form button
to one of my Outlook 2007 toolbars to make it slightly easier to get to the
ones I want.
