Use different email address in *from* field

Hi
I work for a voluntary organisation. All the committee members have an
organisation (.org) email address for public enquiries. Any email sent to
that address is forwarded to the members personal email account. But when
replying, the personal address gets put in the *from* field. This defeats the
purpose of the .org address which is to stop spam etc and keep a committee
members personal address private. Is there any way to change the *from*
address when replying to mail forwarded from the .org address without
affecting personal mail delivery (some members find computers hard work so
I'm looking for an easy solution if there is one) :)
Thanks

*Blush* and slaps head! too tied up in what I'm doing to think right!! 8-)
What an idiot I am! (I have you on a tab at the moment (IE7) so I've just
keep checking back!) (Also, I checked *notify* so got an email as
well....Dher..)
Have since found that many on the committe dont use Outlook or Express so I
need to find solutions for other email clients as well...
Thanks for your help - At least I have my own Outlook working how I want now.

Alright, good to hear! Good luck with the other clients!
