gentleman, i have one other question and i dont know if i can ask it here under this topic or if i should start a new topic. its regarding a problem im having with windows vista mail. actually, i dont know if i should call it a problem, or if some setting is wrong? ill list the problem here now, but if you feel i should start a new topic, just let me know and i gladly will.
i have 7 email accounts. for arguments sake, let me just call 3 of them,
[email protected],
[email protected] and
[email protected]. in the past, if an email came in to tony, when i would click reply, automatically the from address would be from tony as well. the same applied to all my 7 emails. anytime i hit reply to an incoming email, automatically the from email on my reply would be the same email address as the incoming email was addressed to.
now what is happening is that regardless of which of my 7 email accounts gets an incoming email, when reply is hit, only 1 email address is being put automatically in the reply box. to make sure im saying this correctly, lets assume an email comes in to john. when i hit reply, the from address will be my tony email account. and regardless of which of my 7 email accounts gets an incoming email, when reply is hit to respond, my tony email is automatically being put in as my return email on all 7 accounts. i dont want it this way because im forced to use the drop down arror and manually change the from email to the one that the incoming email was addressed to. sometimes i forget and what is happening is someone will send an email to john and my reply is coming from my tony email and its throwing people off.
ive looked at all the settings and cant see anything that relates to this. also, i went into my mail tools/accounts settings and made sure that each of my 7 email accounts had the correct reply to email in those settings and all 7 did. but for some reason, for the last few months, the reply email i send is not automatically using the email address the incoming email arrived to. any help would be appreciated, thanks.
ps - this email problem has nothing to do with my freezing problem originally started in this topic. and i dont have any email problems at all as far as sending and receiving, its just this particular inconvenience problem as stated above. thanks again.
