How to use the additional email address
4 Answers
Something that has been baffling me for the past few days. I have an email account with a service provider which works fine and I can send and receive emails without any problem. I have also got the option of opening a number, I think upto five additional email accounts. So I am logged onto the computer with my password and log onto the internet and i go to my service providers site and by using the account name and password to my account i log in and change or modify the email accounts for my self.
The question is - when I create a new email using microsoft outlook I type in the email address of the person that I want send the email to. When the email is received at the other end it will show which email address the letter has come from. So how do I use these additional email address so that it shows the second email address. I can't figure out where to enter one of my additional email address to send a new email.

Have you set up the new email account in Outlook?
If not click tools at the top of the main Outlook page and click email accounts. The wizard will guide you through the next steps.
If the new email address is with the same provider as your existing one then I suggest you use the view'edit option first to bring up the sttings for your existing account. Select it an click change. Make a note of what appears in the server information fields as this will be the same.
Once you have noted the details go back without chaging anything and use the tools/email accounts otion to add a new email account.

As Gandy says, you need to set up a new account in Outlook for each of your additional e-mail addresses.
When you create a new e-mail message, the 'From' field will show whichever e-mail address you have selected as your default account. To change this to one of your other accounts, just click in the 'From' field and you'll be able to select a different account.
