| | Ordering one's multiple email accounts when composing email Here's a semi-obscure question: I have 4 email addresses for different uses; in Windows Mail I may select from those 4 addresses for composing mail by way of a drop down box when I hit "New Message." My dilemma is that I use quite a few macros that are dependent on the order of those mail accounts; and while WM is automatically setting the default as it should, but I'm having a hard time getting -- and *keeping* -- the other accounts in the correct order! Think of it this way... I want those accounts ordered 1 2 3 4, and through some trial and error of removing and adding my email accounts I was able to do so. Closed WM, re-opened, they were still in the correct order. However, on my last system reboot, the accounts inexplicably re-ordered to 2 4 1 3... and I can't understand any rhyme or reason for the order; it's no alphabetical, it's not by domain, and it's not chronological. Anybody know a good way to accomplish this Herculean task? brink |
