Can I specify an account every time I send a mail to a contact

[Murat Asal]

Hello,
I have multiple e-mail account on my outlook and I was wondering if it is
possible to create a rule that would make it possible for me to use a
specific e-mail account when I send a mail to a specific contact.
For example: Every time I send a mail to contact 'A' I would like the system
to switch to 'yahoo' account on my outlook instead of using the 'default' one.
I do that manually right now but sometimes I forget to change the account
before I send the mail and it goes from a wrong e-mail account.
Thanks

No. You could probably use VBA to ask if that is the right account to use,
but it would likely get annoying very fast.

Just make sure you choose the correct account with the Accounts button prior
to clicking Send. Two extra clicks. No big deal.
