| 1121658 | 2010-07-23 04:50:00 | I've got 3 accounts set up but I've forgotten how to toggle between them when sending. I've looked at HELP but it refers to things I can't even find i.e. FROM below TO and cc on the New Message pane. |

| 1121659 | 2010-07-23 04:57:00 | File menu / switch identity? | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 1121660 | 2010-07-23 05:12:00 | If they are all in the same identity then you select it in the from box, like so (images.gfi.com). | wratterus (105) | ||
| 1121661 | 2010-07-23 07:56:00 | That's the problem, I havn't got a FROM. | martynz (5445) | ||
| 1121662 | 2010-07-23 08:18:00 | Are you sure you have multiple accounts set up? Tools - accounts, you should be able to see a few mail accounts. | wratterus (105) | ||
| 1121663 | 2010-07-23 08:45:00 | Maybe I'm using the wrong terms. I have 3 email addresses: a@paradise.net.nz, b@paradise.net.nz and c....ditto a is my default and emails addressed to all 3 arrive in my inbox. But how do I send using the b and c addys? From what I've read there should be a FROM box with all 3 available for selection. |

| 1121664 | 2010-07-23 09:31:00 | Try removing two of the accounts, restart outlook Express, then add them back in again, one at a time - you should get the "from" option right after the second one is entered and saved. | wainuitech (129) | ||
| 1121665 | 2010-07-23 09:31:00 | I am not sure why you don't have the From option but I noticed that I did not have it either when only one email account was set up in OE. Once I had added another account the From appeared. It sounds like something is amiss in your settings but I have no idea what, sorry. |

| 1121666 | 2010-07-24 00:07:00 | Thanks guys. Sorted now. Didn't have ACCOUNTS showing in TOOLS. Found a Registry hack email.about.com When I followed the instructions I found that "No modify accts value" was entered twice so took a punt and deleted 1 entry. I didn't alter the value from 1 to 0 but this deletion restored ACCOUNTS in TOOLS so I was able to key in the other accounts. Bingo! FROM is now on the NEW MESSAGE page. |
