Default Sending Account Question

I have a business email account that I want to use from home. My ISP
requires that all outgoing mail go through them. For the account setup, I
put their server info in the outgoing mail section. Works OK. Problem is
when I reply to mail sent to my business account Outlook still attempts to
send using my business email address which cannot work. Am I missing
something or does Outlook not like this arrangement?

Default Sending Account Question

If your SMTP server settings match your ISP's settings for the business
account, why would you have a problem sending using that account? You just
set it up to do just that.

Default Sending Account Question

Because my ISP is blocking port 25 - as many do nowadays - and my business
email requires port 25. So in other words, when I send outgoing mail it has
to be through my ISP's account or it never leaves the Outbox. Not a problem
when I am sending an original messsge. When replying to a message sent to my
business account, Outlook tries to use the business account to send the reply
which cannot work.
