Problem sending email from multiple POP accounts

[xmm]

I'm on Outlook 2003 SP1.

Here's what I have:

4 pop email accounts each associated to a pst file. In this way, I
have 4 separate folders that show up in the "All Mail Folders" pane on
the left:

(e-mail address removed)
(e-mail address removed)
(e-mail address removed)
(e-mail address removed)


I also added one other pst file called "My Outlook.pst". This pst file
does not have an associated email address. Instead, I set it as the
"Deliver new e-mail to the following location:" parameters in the
E-mail account dialog box. In this way, I can keep all my contact,
calendar events, notes, etc. global to all email accounts.

Now 3 of the email accounts are from my ISP (I'm using dslextreme.com).
The 4th email account (me4) is not as you can see from the list.

Just so you know, all 4 email addresses test successfully using the
"Test Account Settings..." button in the email configuration dialog
box. This includes me4. When I test this email, the test message does
show up when I login to the web interface of the outside email provider
do I'm confident there's not a login problem or such.

What works: I choose new email, choose me1 from the Account pull-down
in the email I'm creating, address it to me2 (say) then SEND. The
Outbox of "My Outlook" goes bold which means the new email is ready to
send. Then I choose Send/Receive and the email is successfully sent (I
turned automatic send off for now). When I receive it, the email is
automatically placed in the me2 INBOX and says it's from me1. Perfect!
BTW, I created a script to copy incoming email to the corresponding
account. I'll copy it below in a sec.

What does NOT work: I repeat the process except this time I choose send
with me4 from the Accounts pull-down, address it to me2 (say), then
Send, then Send/Receive. Guess what? It sends successfully but when
it comes into the me2 account, it says it's from me1! Wrong! Can
anyone help me fix this?

Here's the script I wrote (compiled from others work on the net) to
copy incoming email to a folder of the corresponding to account:

Thank you in advance!


Hit alt+F11 then paste this in and you should be set:

Option Explicit

Private WithEvents olSentMailItems As Items


Private Sub Application_Startup()
Dim oNS As NameSpace

Set oNS = Application.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set olSentMailItems = oNS.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderSentMail).Items

Set oNS = Nothing
End Sub

Private Sub Application_Quit()
' disassociate global objects
Set olSentMailItems = Nothing
End Sub


Private Sub olSentMailItems_ItemAdd(ByVal Item As Object)
Dim oNS As NameSpace
Dim oEmailAccountFolder As MAPIFolder
Dim olSentItemsFolder As MAPIFolder
Dim Message As String
Dim i As Integer
Dim m As MailItem

If Item.Class = olMail Then
Set oNS = Application.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set olSentItemsFolder =
oNS.Folders(Item.SenderEmailAddress).Folders("Sent Items")
' MsgBox ("Sending item to: " & olSentItemsFolder.FolderPath)
Item.Move olSentItemsFolder
End If

Set oNS = Nothing
End Sub

Hello again,

Two things:

First, I screwed up because I said I used the posted script to move
incoming email to corresponding account folders. Wrong! I do that
with Rules (very simple). What the script does is move SENT email to
the corresponding account folders Sent Items folder. That way, I
didn't have all email sent from every account in one folder (the "My
Outlook" > Sent Items folder in my case).

Second, I recently (yesterday) changed me4's host. Then after posting
above, I changed 2 things different from my previous host and now
EVERYTHING WORKS PERFECTLY!! Ohhyeaaahh. The new host is
crystaltech.com. The old host was discountasp.net. With crystal tech,
you can send email through port 8889 and they require smtp
authentication. I changed these two things and everything is good.

BTW, crystaltech has a waaaaaaaaaay better email interface. Check it
out.

Have fun
