Hi,
I use a mail redirection service for my two ‘front end’ email addresses; lets just call them mailto:[email protected] and mailto:[email protected]. The pop3 server is mailto:[email protected] and the smtp server is mailto:o[email protected].

Each of these email addresses redirect to my ‘real’ email address mailto:[email protected]. The pop3 server is mailto:[email protected] and the smtp server is mailto:o[email protected].

How do you set outlook up so that it retrieves email from my realemail.com account whilst maintaining any email I send looks as if it comes from the mail.com account?

For example. I get an email sent to mailto:[email protected] which automatically gets redirected to mailto:[email protected] from where I retrieve and read it. When I reply, I want the mail to appear as if it has originated from mailto:[email protected] so that replies get sent there and not my real email address.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

You will need to manually choose the account every time. Outlook doesn't
receive mail by mail address. It doesn't care one whit what the address is.
It received mail by account. You are receiving the mail with the
realemail.com account and that's what Outlook will use unless you choose
another sending account defined with the address you want the recipient to
see.
 
Oh thats a bugger...

Is it limitation of outlook? Otherwise I cannot see a point to having a mail redirection service if all you are going to do is give everyone the address you are trying to keep private when you reply to an email. I understood it to be like a pobox type service!!

That's a drawback to the agglomeration services when used with Outlook. It
takes only a glimmer of thought to make sure you use the correct account when
sending.
