Mac Mail Question
pooks | Apr 26 2006
Okay, I don't even know what to call the email that comes on the Mac when it's shipped. It just says "Mail." Anyway, that's what I'm using. And I finally took the time to set up different folders so that different kinds of mail go into them, and that is really great. My problem is, I have more than one account/email address. I am subscribed to a couple of email lists with an email address I created just for that purpose, so the list mail won't be cluttering up my mailbox and overwhelming the mail I need to see promptly when it shows up. I can only reply to those emails from a specific email address. The problem is, for some reason when I hit reply, Mail is automatically opening from the wrong account. I repeatedly hit send only to have stuff bounce back at me. How do I change it so it knows which account to send from? I'm IN the right folder when I hit reply, if that makes sense, but sending from the wrong account address. Thanks! 16 Comments

When you click reply, it shows the address it will come from above the composition area but below the address fields. It has a drop box, and you can select from there. P.S. You can call it Apple Mail. Some call it Mail.app, but be prepared for backlash if the wrong people get wind of it. ;) I have adopted John's convention, but I struggle with the switch. » POSTED IN:
