Default e mail address???

i have 4 different e mail addresses on mail but every time i send a new message it doesnt matter which mail address i choose to send from it always sends from the address at the top of the list in preferences. i cant seem to change the order in preferences but i can in the new message box but it doesnt make any difference.
any help would be appreciated

I have a similar problem.
I had a Hotmail E-Mail address that I had to replace.
That's become a nightmare!
However, when I use my Imac with the latest OS X (Mountain Lion) and use Apple Mail to send a page,
my old address (that I cannot use and forgot the password) comes up.
I tried to change things to a new address and with the SMTP change stuff, and that didn't work either.
Now I probably have a bigger problem!.
To whomever answers this question:
Please:
1. Keep answrs very simple
2. Use screen capture to illustrate and reinforce what you are writing.

How do I setup my default E~mail address, have tried tool/options window w/ no luck.

I hate to reference microsoft IE8, but they have a default E~mail address that some web sites utilize. So far I have not been able to set-up one on Firefox, the Tool/option/send link does not work for me, nor does the applications window from the above options.

Sorry, but this is getting above my level of experience with Firefox. I use Gmail which is supported, and I never had to dig into it this deep.
Firefox would offer Outlook Express as the first "option", but since Win7 doesn't have Outlook Express as earlier versions of Windows did, that option shows up as Internet Shortcut Shell Extension DLL instead. ''(I get that too, with the "tiny" version of WinXP - ''sans OE'' - I currently use.)'' I have no idea how that Shell Extension DLL works.
The support page that I hyperlinked has this at the bottom: <br />
Firefox 3.5 and Firefox 3.6 include only Gmail and Yahoo! Mail support by default. You may add other services when they add support for this Firefox feature. <br /> ''I think Mozilla was counting on extension developers "picking up the slack" with an extension or extensions for each web mail service out there. But the way I see it, is that when Mozilla changed the way this works for Firefox 3.5 the few extensions that already did that were broken, and then there wasn't anything users had to use after the changes. IMHO, that was half-finished by Mozilla. They probably should have left that as it was in Firefox 3.0 or 2.0, instead of leaving the "completion" of this feature to 3rd party developers.''
You need to an extension to be able to use MSN or Hotmail. Look for a suitable extension in this AMO search.<br />

OS 3.0 - Default E-Mail address issues

I'm sure this is user error, but having some difficulty with default e-mail addresses. I set up three e-mail accounts in this order:
1.) Comcast
2.) Gmail
3.) Yahoo!
In Mail Contacts Calendars, they appear in that order and near the bottom of that page, my Default Account is set to "Comcast".. Under that section it says, "Messages create doutside of Mail will be sent from the default account.". Fine, but what about sending messages from the Mail App home screen? This is the screen that you first get when you select the Mail App. At the top is says Accounts, then the three accounts are listed below. Sure, I could simply select the account and compose from their, but you have the ability to compose or check mail right from that first screen. When I try to compose from the Accounts page, the Cc/Bcc, From: section has the GMAIL account. I can manually select that and change it, but what's the point? Default e-mail should be comcast. Please advise.
Thanks!

Setting up default e-mail address

Hi there,
We currently have a set of Workflows sending several e-mails to different agents. We are using workCenters to identify the agents.
It may occur that a WorkCenter does not have any position/user assigned to, and therefore no e-mail would be sent. We would like to setup a default e-mail address for this scenario. This e-mail address will receive the same e-mail, but only when no other agent can be found.
The question is: What would be the most standard way to define this e-mail address? We have set it up within the method of the class we are using to retrieve the e-mail address from the workCenters, but this way users cannot modify this default e-mail address. And we need users to be able to modify this value in production.
Is there any custom config table we can use (like T77S0) specific for WorkFlows? Any other suggestion will be appreciated
Thank you,
Miguel

hi, you can use this FM to get user details
CALL FUNCTION 'SUSR_USER_ADDRESS_READ'
     EXPORTING
          user_name              = (give user name here)
        READ_DB_DIRECTLY       = ' '

        USER_ADDRESS           = wa_ADDR3_VAL
         user_usr03             = wa_addr3_val
    EXCEPTIONS
         user_address_not_found = 1
         OTHERS                 = 2
Give default user name here. Now u can change user email from table adrc6.

How do you change default e-mail address in iPhoto 9.6?

I've changed my e-mail address but iPhoto defaults to the old one when I try to e-mail photos directly from iPhoto

iPhoto Menu -> Preferences -> Accounts ->
Delete and recreate your email settings.
Alternatively, use Apple's Mail for the job. It has Templates too - and more of them.

How do you I change the default e-mail address within a contact in Address Book

My v-card (My Card) information has 3 e-mail addresses. My work e-mail address is the default used whenever I use autofill on a web page. I am trying to change the default e-mail within my contact to my home e-mail address but there is no information that I can find to do this.

Understand. I am in the edit mode for my contact. I see all the contact info. There is no right click or other means to change the DEFAULT address that autofill uses (it also is first to appear if I type my name in an e-mail). For instance for a group e-mail you can change the default addresses of each contact by control-clicking on the group in Address Book. I can't seem to make the default change in my v-card.

Default e-mail address for replies

I have a rather strange problem. I have 8 e-mail accounts in my Thunderbird, and I have 5 different "inboxes". So I have a main one that pulls from one account (we'll call this account #1), then my second one pulls from 3 accounts, the third pulls from 2 accounts, and the 4th and 5th each pull from a single account. I did this by using the Advanced button under Account Settings -> Server Settings to group the e-mail accounts such that they are associated with a certain inbox. There are no problems with e-mail getting to the right place when downloading them. I also use Get Selected Mails and Manually Sort Folders. The only other add-ons are Lightning and Smiley Fixer.
In most cases, when I click "reply" to a message, it will show the "from" field as the e-mail account to which the message was addressed, but this is not always the case.
For instance, on a message sent to account #1, if I just do "reply" it will insert the proper "from" address. If I select "reply all" to the same message, I get a different address - one from the 3rd inbox group, and not one I want to use! The address is uses is not the last one that was set up either, I have added the 4th and 5th inboxes since then.
Sometimes, when I am looking at a message in my second inbox, and I click to reply to a message sent to account A within that inbox, it will flip the "from" to account B.
I haven't summed up all of the issues I'm seeing, but they are all very similar. I'm sure that if I went through all the iterations I could figure out a pattern but I don't have the time. I've looked in the config file and there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it. In mail.accountmanager.accounts setting, the order of the accounts seems a bit random and intermingled. The main inbox is the first one, the second is one e-mail from the 2nd inbox, the third is an e-mail from the 3rd inbox, the fourth and fifth are e-mails from the 2nd inbox, the sixth is an e-mail from the 3rd inbox, the seventh and eighth don't seem to have an ID associated with them, and the ninth and tenth are the 4th and 5th accounts - the most recently set up.
I'm wondering if I have to just re-install Thunderbird and set all this up again from scratch because something seems seriously hosed here. The only thing that looks correct is that account 1 is ID 1 and server 1, and that is set as the default account in every way I can see but it doesn't work like that. All the other accounts/ID/server numbers are out of order, which I'm sure doesn't matter.

No Texting Ability with BES/Multiple e-mail addresses - BB 8900

Hello all,
  1. I recently dumped my iPhone and switched to the BB 8900, all is well except I use my BB for work and my company disabled my text message feature and IM feature. I am able to receive text messages but I can no longer respond. Any ideas on how to begin sending text with enterprise software, either through an app or through the web?
  2. I have Microsoft Exchange Outlook as my default e-mail address. From the gentlemen I spoke with in my office they notified me I could only use my outlook e-mail(corporate). Although, I spoke with our Tech office and they notified me some individuals can have a second e-mail address. How would I be able to add an extra e-mail (Yahoo!).
  Sorry if my questions are elementary but I appreciate any helpful information. Thank You,
Mike

Hi Michael and welcome to the Blackberry Forums
If you can't send SMS is because your IT guys block the function, and you can't change this.
You have a setup mail icon on the device?, if yes, try setting the yahoo mail from this icon, i think you have blocked too, but try..............

Sending E-Mail from Multiple Defined E-mail addresses.

Currently we are using exchange 2013. Let's say a user has a mailbox account for John Doe and assign a default e-mail address of [email protected] Now I go ahead and define additional e-mail addresses of [email protected] and [email protected]
now John would like to start sending and receiving e-mails using all 3 defined e-mail addresses. How does one set this up. It seen that outlook 2013 only allows "on behalf of" sending and exchange only allows you to send e-mail using your default
e-mail address?

Account problems - User ID and e-mail addresses

I created a user ID about eight years ago when I had a .mac account and my ID was my e-mail address, i.e. [email protected]
After a year, I decided that I no longer wanted to use .mac and didn't renew my subscription. I seem to remember that I had to continue using the .mac user ID even though it was no longer a valid e-mail address. I added my new e-mail address and all communication is sent to that.
So, I have put up with this odd situation - using an old invalid e-mail address as my user ID and logging in, making purchases with nothing more than a minor inconvenience, until now.
I installed the Messages Beta anticipating the ability to merge/sync messages with my iPhone but was frustrated that it didn't work. I discovered that the problem is related to the caller ID e-mail addresses being the same and there lay the problem - I can't use the invalid user ID on my Mac that my iPhone uses.
I have looked into my account settings and I can see that I can add and edit all my e-mail addresses but my user ID is fixed. But worse than that, I am getting a warning that my user ID and e-mail default e-mail address should be the same.
Has anybody any idea how I can sort this out? Or if there is any way to restore my .mac e-mail account?

No. The login ID is nothing more than an text string and it does not function as an actual email address. If you wish to change the email address associated with your Apple ID use this page: <http://store.apple.com/us/account/home>.
The text string you use to log in will remain the Yahoo "email address" but all email communications will be sent to the address specified in your account.

CS4 Forms, user to enter an e-mail address to sent the form to

Is it possible for a user to complete an on line form in the members only section of my web site and then enter an e-mail address to send the form to.
It appears most forms have a default e-mail address that the form is sent to when the user clicks the submit button, i would like the user to enter any e-mail address they like to send the information to as well as the default e-mail address.
I am using windows 7, Dreamweaver CS4 and ASP server pages to have members logon to the members only section.
Thanks for any assistance

Is it possible for a user to complete an on line form in the members only section of my web site and then enter an e-mail address to send the form to.
Sure.
It appears most forms have a default e-mail address that the form is sent to when the user clicks the submit button
Why do you think so? This is not the case.
Just process the form, and use the contents of the field in which the visitor has placed the desired target email address (properly sanitized, of course to avoid email injection problems) as the "To:" address in your call to the mailserver.

Clicking on an e-mail address will NOT open Windows Live Mail which is already the default mail program which is already set as the default mail program

Clicking on an e-mail address will NOT open Windows Live Mail. Windows Live mail is already set as my default e-mail program.

Sorry you're having this problem. I think it was previously reported only by Windows XP users.
When you reinstall, were you making Firefox your default browser? Some users have reported that ''not'' making Firefox the default browser was an effective workaround.
However, you may have success with this approach, suggested by a user in another thread, which appears to more thoroughly update the Windows registry:
# Open Adobe Reader / Acrobat
# Edit->Preferences
# In the Categories column click 'General'
# Near the bottom of the page click the button marked 'Select Default PDF Handler'
# In the dialog, select 'Adobe Reader XI' (or Adobe Acrobat, as the case may be) and click 'Apply'
# A Windows Configuration screen will appear. Allow it to do its stuff (takes a few minutes), then restart your computer when prompted.
Does that resolve the issue for you?

Java mail(fetch default SMTP server address)

I am writting a code to send an email using Java Mail API.
I have manged what I wanted(send a mail with an attachment)
But in my code I have hard coded the SMTP server address,that is what I dont want to do .Is there anything in java which can fetch the default SMTP server address ?
