Outlook 97: Sending from multiple internet email accounts

[Stefano Capaccio]

Hi,

Quick question that I hope somebody has an answer to.

I have multiple POP email accounts that I access. Receiving email is not a
problem and neither is sending (via my default account). My question is
this: Is there a way in Outlook 97 that I can use to specify which of my POP
accounts is used to SEND email (i.e. (e-mail address removed) instead of
(e-mail address removed))? I can do this really easily in Outlook Express (via the
From list) but can't find a way in Outlook. Is this a 'feature' or is there
a way round it?

Any help out there?

Thanks,

Stef

No, Outlook 97 cannot do this. You can download and install the Internet
Mail Enhancement Patch (IMEP) and it may be able to then, but since it is
such an old program and out of support for more than a year, you really
should look into upgrading.
