Problem with OE6
If I receive an email and click reply, in the from box it always shows the
account that is first alphabetically. Is there any way to set up ONE to
reply from the same account as to where the message was addressed.
TIA

It would appear that all of your accounts are "aliases" for one mailbox with
your ISP. As such, OE will use the main account associated with the
mailbox.

However, Your current Identity may be damaged, especially if its the default
Main Identity. Try one or more of your accounts in a new Named Identity
(File>Identities>Add new identity). Assuming all is well, import messages
from the old Identity before deleting it (File>Identities>Manage
Identities).

Don't use Inbox or Sent Items to archive messages. Move them to local
folders created for this purpose.

Disable Background Compacting [N/A in SP2] and frequently perform a manual
compact of all OE folders while "working offline". More at
http://insideoe.tomsterdam.com/files/maintain.htm.

Your anti-virus application's email scanning feature can also cause such
corruption. Disable it. It provides no additional protection.
