I run a biz from home. I have personal as well as biz email accounts setup on my computer. I want to setup Outlook(2000) so that no matter who i send an email to, it will look as if it came from my biz email, not my earthlink account which is my outgoing mail handler. Is there a way to force outlook to do this? By the way, i use outlook in Corporate/Workgroup mode. I have tried changing the return addressing and email addressing under "Services" and this did not work. I want my biz email to look as if it were coming from my company instead of earthlink.

Thanks,

Wax
 
I am using Corporate/Workgroup because Act!2000(contact manager) requires it. Yes, Internet mail Only would be easy but alot of those options dissapear when using C/W. I have gotten it to work for now. I will have to keep an eye on it.

Thanks,

Talked to an Act2K buddy here at work and he believes you're mistaken. We want you to know that IMO means Internet Mail Only--not to be confused with Outlook Express.

You won't lose anything if you try this out, but you might need my help afterward to get all your stuff together, don't know.

Tools-Options-Mail format. There's a reconfigure email support button. If you're really at home and not on a LAN (cable/DSL doesn't count!!), then you should have IMO. Let me know if you need more help, Wax. Now or later...
