Always use the default account when composing new messages box missing in Outlook 2010 after updating the product key.

I have 2 accounts in outlook 2010. 1 is for me and the other I have delegate access to. When I am in the delegates email and want to reply it automatically uses the account the email is in. So if I am in my email, the from is me but if I am in the delegates
email and hit reply the from is them. Now this is not working and I can't figure out how to get it to work. The only thing that changes is that office asked me to activate recently, which is weird since I have had this same computer with the same version of
office for almost a year now. I did a ton of searching and came across an option on the internet: "Always use the deafult account when composing new messages" but this option is not there on my computer. I checked another computer I have with Office
2010 also and the option is available so it must be something to do with the office activation because I haven't done it on this computer yet. PLEASE HELP!!!

Seems this is a hot issue recently, I've post a reply to another thread with the similar topic, please reference that:

  • Selecting account when composing new message

    With Mail, is it possible to automatically select the "from" address based upon entering a "to" address? I have a bad habit of composing a new message and sending it without thinking about which account I'm actually sending it from. What I'd like to do is be able to, for instance, enter my friend's name when I'm composing a new message, and based on that, Mail would automatically switch the sending account to my personal email account. When emailing my boss, automatically use my work account, etc.

    Hi jp3,
    Unfortunately Mail does not support what you're looking for. If you respond to an email it'll automatically select the appropriate account but not on the creation of a new message. The only "setting" for that is in "composing" where you can choose a default address (or) the account of the selected mailbox. If you go the second option, just make sure you're viewing the appropriate Inbox.

  • Default account setting in Outlook 2010 does not work when composing new messages?

    Hello,
    I am currently using Outlook 2010 (not beta). I have two accounts, a google imap account and a pop3 account.  I have designated my IMAP account as my default account.  As I understand it, this means that when I create a new email,
    it should default to being sent from my IMAP account.  However, whenever I create a new email, it defaults to the account which I am currently viewing in Outlook.  In other words, if I am currently viewing the pop3 inbox, when I compose an email,
    it will default send from that account.  Conversely, when I compose an email while viewing the IMAP inbox, it will default send from that account. 
    Any ideas as to what is going on?  This is rather frustrating because I only rarely send with my pop3 account--only when replying/forwarding email received with that account or other unique situations.  Is there a way to make Outlook be true to
    sending from the default account, without doing something drastic like disabling the secondary account?
    Thanks in advance.

    Of course it's a bug.

    The behaviour itself may be considered a feature by Microsoft, though I disagree, but the fact that one thinks one is specifying a "default" account that is not then used as the default in all cases is clearly a bug.
    It is astonishing to me that in the plethora of options, advanced options and advanced advanced options there is not a checkbox to enable this new behaviour with the default being unchecked.

  • Have multiple email accounts. How to make one the default account when using Send to Mail Recipient?

    We have multiple email accounts. How do I make one of the accounts the default sender address when we Send to a document to Mail Recipient? Or how can I change the order of the email accounts on Thunderbird that they appear?

    To change the default account, Tools/Account Settings, select the account in the left pane, then Account Actions/Set as Default.

  • Maill always send from default account when using multiple accounts

    I have a gmail account as my default account. I also have a work imap account.
    When sending an email from my work account, it initially fails to send. On making it retry, the message is sent.
    The message ends up in the recipient's mailbox as having been sent from my default gmail address, and having no content.
    Is anyone else experiencing this?

    I should add that I have set the smtp server for my work email to only use my work smtp server, and not fall back to gmail.

  • No 'Account' Dop-Down Menu When Composing New Message

    As the subject says, when I am composing a new e-mail I do not have the 'account' drop-down mennu to choose which account to send from. I clicked the customize button and it does not give me any 'account' option to choose from....its not there. Any help would be appreciated!

    -Tony,
    Quit Mail, find the com.apple.mail.plist file in your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder, drag it to the Desktop, log out/in or restart and try selecting Account. You will have to reset your account preferences.
    If you are not satisfied with the results, just return the com.apple.mail.plist file back to the original location.

  • Is it possible to change the default URL when creating new hyperlinks?

    I'm currently working to take a 128 page catalog that was created in InDesign for print and turn it into a interactive PDF to post on our companies website. The catalog contains thousands of part numbers and I'd like to link each one to its corresponding stock status page on our website that gives current availability and pricing for any particular customer.
    So say I'm dealing with part number "XXXX". When I go to add the hyperlink the default web address it spits out is " http://XXXX ". Instead of that, would it be possible to change the default to " http://forums.adobe.com/discussion/XXXX/1 ". Obviously I just used this website as an example, but it would save so much time if I could avoid having to type the exact same URL every time.
    Or maybe is there a quicker way to do this other than what I am currently trying?
    Thanks

    I've found some external software applications that will do it, so that leads me to believe its not possible within ID CC.

  • Entourage default opening at compose new message

    It seems since upgrading to Mavericks that when I open the Entourage mail application, the program seems to always default to Compose a new message window. This is not how it used to be. I could simply open Entourage and view my folders and main window panel. If I selected new mesage, only then would the compose email panel appear.
    I have looked through the entourage preferences and cannot identify which option is causing this occur and then how I can turn it off.
    I am using Entourage for Mac 2008.
    Any ideas?

    I recently upgraded to Mavericks and I am using Entourage for Mac 2008 as well.  The exact same thing is happening to me.  Extremely annoying.  Upon opening Entourage it goes straight to opening compose new mail message window.  Searched through preferences for an option to turn this off and there is nothing referring to this.
    What to do.  Hopefully microsoft will identify this glitch and send out an update to fix.
    In the mean time it looks like we will just have to close this annoying window each time you want to simply read your emails.........

  • Apple Mail locks up when composing new messages

    After 10.9.2, I am unable to send mail from my Apple Mail App! I can read, but creating a new message invokes the spinning rainbow icon of death (which stays around for hours if you let it -- I've verified this).
    Anybody have any ideas on how to fix or what the cause is?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.

  • How do I Downgrade iCloud on my Gmail account! The default account is already Downgraded to 5Gb, but it is not giving me the option on my gmail account.

    How do I Downgrade my Gmail iCloud account
    The default iCloud I have managed to downgrade to 5GB (me.com)But I
    am can't amend the gmail account which will renew on the
    12th Oct. 
    Thanks

    Do you mean you have two separate iCloud accounts, one with an @me.com login and one with a Gmail login?
    Presumably you have the @me.com one signed in in System Preference>iCloud? You will have to sign of it and sign in with the Gmail account, perform the downgrade, sign out, and sign back in with the @me.com one.

  • Problem encrypting email when composing New Message

    This may be a bug in Mail app version 4.2 (1078). I am trying to send an encrypted email to a recipient. I already have the recipient's public key in Key Access. If i click on the New Message button and i enter the recipient's email address, the encrypt button is greyed out and i cannot click on it to encrypt the email. However, if i click on the Reply button or if i click on the sender's name and choose the "New Message" option in a digitally signed email sent to me earlier, i can encrypt the email without any problem.
    I have tried deleting the recipient's entry in my address book and add it back by clicking on his name and selecting "Add to Address Book" in the digitally signed email sent to me, but still, that did not help.
    Anyone else seen this before?

    Same problem here.

  • Notes are blank in Outlook 2013 after updating the note in IOS 8

    The setup:
    On my computer, Windows 7 and Outlook 2013 (Exchange 2013 on the server side).
    I create a new note and close it. I can open it, modify it, and everything works as expected.
    On my iPhone 6 with IOS 8.0.2, I go into the same note. Everything looks fine. If I modify it and close it, I can open it and everything looks fine.
    Now the issue...When I go back to Outlook on my PC and open the same note (subject/title shows in the list view), the note is completely blank.
    So, I go back to my phone and everything still looks ok. If I type in the now blank note on the PC, it overwrites the old note contents.
    To make all this even stranger, if I log into OWA, the note is there and works fine through this entire process (well, until I overwrite the contents). But, in OWA, it seems to strip out the subject on certain saves.
    I tried all this on another laptop I have lying around and get the same results. I tried a new profile. I tried safe mode. All the same.
    This leads me to believe that Outlook 2013 has issues displaying notes. If OWA has the correct info, then the server has the correct info.
    Does anyone else have this issue or can try to replicate the issue? Any suggestions on fixing it?

  • Removing a 'bad' previous recipient name when composing 'new message'.

    Hello,
    Anyone know how to remove a 'bad' recipient name from the list of previous recipients on the iPhone?
    Thank you.

    Hey Carter,
    The only way to remove that cached information in the Mail application is to restore the iPhone and setup as a new phone. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305744

  • Composing new messages using smtp alias doesn't return results

    Greetings,
    Our setup: New Exchange 2013 server with an existing 2007 server.  Looking to move mailboxes to 2013.  When testing with iOS and Android devices we found when composing new messages and using an smtp alias and just typing each users initials (which
    is a smtp alias of each user plus their regular email address)  no results are coming up when connected to Exchange 2013 mailbox on 2013 CAS server.  It works when using Exchange 2007 CAS.
    If we type the user's first name it comes up with the user and smtp address.  However, just typing the 3 letter alias - nothing comes up and we just get "no matches" returned in the messaging app.
    I've checked everything I can think of.  Ideas or suggestions?
    Many thanks!

    I don't understand what you are saying.
    If you uncheck the "Create a sent item to track
    information", the sent item is not created. No
    status tracking will take place.
    I don't understand what you are looking for.
    If the above option is not set, only the received
    items are created.
