Hello:

To set one account as the default, do the following:

1. In any folder of outlook express, hit "alt t" for tools, then arrow up 
twice to "accounts"; press enter.

2. You're now in your list of accounts, which, in your case, only contains 
two addresses. If your screen-reading program doesn't tell you which one is 
your default program, you can use your screen reader's "say line" command, 
but you know which account you want to make as the default, so that's 
superfluous.

3. Tab five times until you hear, "set as default"; hit the space bar or 
enter.

4. Tab over to "close."

This should do it.

HTH!

John

Subject: [VICUG-L] default account


Hello Friends,
I use O.E. as my mail client.  I've two accounts of the same ISP.
however I have chosen  to make one of them my default account.

but...when composing new mails, the default account from which it gets send 
has to be changed from the from combo box of the mail.
I've tried removing both the accounts ..restarted OE and then imported both 
the accounts but it has not served the purpose.

can someone guide me what is it that I can do to ensure that the default 
account is used for sending the newly composed mail in OE?

thanks and regards
