Outlook 2007 won't reply using IMAP account email was sent to

I have numerous POP accounts and two IMAP accounts set up in Outlook 2007. I
have IMAP account #1 as the default account. When I receive email via IMAP
account #2, then hit reply, instead of Outlook choosing to send that reply
via the account it was received (i.e. IMAP account #2), it chooses to send
that reply via the default email account (i.e. IMAP account #1). Does anyone
know how to resolve this, so that Outlook 2007 will choose to send the reply
via the account it was received?

Thanks -

Use the Field Chooser to add the Account field to the header line and see
if, in fact, the message was really received by the account you think it
was.
 
In Outlook, when you create an IMAP account it creates a separate local .pst
file for that account. Because of this, it's pretty easy to tell to which
account the IMAP mail is being delivered.

So thanks, but I actually ended up fixing it just by restarting Outlook.
