Use a secondary email account to send mail merge
Hi,
Because of the way my ISP sets up email - I have to use my personal email account as the default email in Outlook. I do a lot of email merges for my business and these really need to be sent through my other email account (my business address). Is there a way to do this? |

You will need to have an account with your ISP and be logged on as that
account to do it. -- Please post any further questions or followup to the newsgroups for the benefit of others who may be interested.

Thanks for the answer - I wish it was the answer I was
hoping for! Looks like I'm going to have to do some changes to my ISP email address to make it appear kinda similar to the business email address, and have replies sent to the business address. I wish that MS would address this in an upcoming version of Office. I really don't want to start using ACT again. -----Original Message----- You will need to have an account with your ISP and be logged on as that account to do it. -- Please post any further questions or followup to the newsgroups for the benefit of others who may be interested.

Use a secondary email account to send mail merge
E-Mail typically uses two servers - a POP server to receive and an SMTP
server to send. Most ISPs will allow you to receive mail from any POP server, but will only allow you to use their own SMTP server to send mail. This will be the server detailed in the ISPs default account properties. However, you can setup the ISP's SMTP server against any or all of your accounts. The messages will appear to the recipients to come from the required account. Thus you should be able to setup *any* account as default and/or reply to any mail received on any account. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP Web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site www.mvps.org/word Voo wrote: Thanks for the answer - I wish it was the answer I was hoping for!
