Google Mail problem
      #393327 - Fri May 02 2008 01:53 PM

I have 4 e-mail addresses, 2 AOL, 1 Yahoo Mail and 1 Google Mail.

I've spent ages trying to setup Outlook 2002 and Thunderbird, and have pretty well given up on them!! Then I read somewhere about using Google Mail has a mail host, and set it up and hey presto, it works!!! The setup was far easier and quicker then Outlook and Thunderbird, and all my mails appear on the one screen into the bargain!

However, I have come across a problem! One of my AOL addresses is used for business so I need this particular address to work properly. I've discovered that when I reply to a received e-mail, even although the AOL address is in the "From" box, when it gets to the other end it shows as having come from my Google Mail address.

Can anyone help me resolve this problem?

Thanks in anticipation.

Go to "settings" at the top of the screen, then "accounts". At the bottom of the "send mail as" section. Under the heading which says "When I receive a message sent to one of my addresses", do you have "Reply from the same address to which the message was sent" selected?
