| Guest | Default account for sending emails I see that in Windows Live Mail is possible to set a default account for sending emails but if an account is selected in the side menu the email will be sent with that account and not with default one. This way is easy to send emails with wrong account. Would be usefull and option that (if activated) force the account to be always the default one. thank you Roberto |

| Guest | Re: Default account for sending emails To me it seems logical that the email is sent from the account that you are currently working with. I highly doubt that the developers would consider changing this behavior. Before clicking Send, one should always double-check the 'From' account displayed in the upper right corner of the compose window. -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP "Roberto Nicchi" <robertonicchi@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:18110A11-8DB6-4E2E-A53E-C0447C90A85F@xxxxxx

| Guest | Re: Default account for sending emails Start a new message using the default account. Save the message to the desktop. Use the saved message to start a new email. What is easy is checking which account is listed when composing the message. The From column is always shown. I like the feature. I know that when I am working in an account, new emails will be from that account. -- Ronald Sommer "Roberto Nicchi" <robertonicchi@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:18110A11-8DB6-4E2E-A53E-C0447C90A85F@xxxxxx

it's happened many times to me to send a work email using my personal account that i prefere to keep private.
always default account for new emails sent". If this option is not selected (default) the email will be sent with the currently selected account. Roberto Nicchi

| Guest | Re: Default account for sending emails Couldn't agree more with you Roberto. I'm regularly sending emails by mistake from my wife's address and vice versa even though I'm set as default. Perhaps if the account send selection was more central to view that would help?

| Guest | Re: Default account for sending emails An account being the default only means that if you send email from another program, the default account will be used. Forget that there is a default account. -- Ronald Sommer "Ian Cockram" <iancockram@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:2726FB9E-EC2F-4188-B09F-FB51E21C46E3@xxxxxx

| Guest | Re: Default account for sending emails Also, if you are viewing a newsgroup message and click on Reply, it will use the default email account. Not that I would ever do that. -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP "Ron Sommer" <rsommer@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:eSqQyCtwIHA.516@xxxxxx
