Reply ("From") email account automatically changes to 2nd email account

I have 2 email accounts setup on my iPhone. Each has their own individual incoming and outgoing servers setup.
If someone emails me on account "A" and I reply to them, my account "B" shows is the one they receive the email from.
There is no way these accoutns are connected and I am sure that my "From" is setup to account "A".
Why is this happening???
p.s. On a side note...account "A" is my web hosting account. Account "B" is Gmail.
Ever since I downloaded 4.2.1, I keep getting a popup message saying "Cannot verify server identity"
p.p.s. When I open up account "A" and send a new mail, account "A" shows up as "from" to those people...it only happens when I reply to an email.

  • Can I set a default Reply-From email address on my iPad/iPhone?

    In Mail for the Mac, there is an option under the Compose settings to set a default Reply-From email address for all your emails, so that, regardless of which account any email came from, you will always reply by default from one specific address. Is there a way to set a default Reply-From address on the iPad/iPhone?

    [EDIT: Sorry, mis-read question. Ignore me.]

  • OS X Mail - Always reply from the account mail was receive by.

    I have three email accounts:  A, B, and C.
    Suppose I get email addressed to account  A.
    When I reply to that email, I obviously want to send the reply from the same account, namely A.
    However Mail chooses to reply to mail sent to A  from account B, instead, causing great confusion to the sender, who is now communicating with two different accounts.  Is there any situation where replying from an account other than the account recieving account makes sense?
    I'd like to configure Mail to always reply from the account from which the mail was received.  Obviously this is possible and I can't imaging it's not the default behavior but I can't seem to figure out how.
    Any help would appreciated,
    Faz

    I do leave the messages in my inbox and have "Send from account of selected mailbox" selected but sometimes that doesn't happen... 
    I just looked at a message I replied with from a few days ago.  The original message was sent to account A and the signiture on the reply is from account A but the message was actually sent from account B. This makes no sense, and it seems to be random.
    I must have misconfigure something, I'll dig through the account settings.

  • Reply from same account...

    My boss recently asked me if it's possible to reply from the one account always regardless of where the original email came from.
    For example, if he has accounts A, B and C set up in his mail, and receives an email in account B or C, is there a preference to always reply from account A?
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Agreed -- this automatic FROM feature is very poorly planned for a FAMILY computer. Instead, Apple should have separate icons for each account, so when the icon is opened the inbox and outbox are tied to that account and that account only.
    The current approach absolutely does NOT work for a family computer. This needs to be fixed.
    And I'm glad there is a simple solution for the original poster. We need a solution for the opposite problem.

  • How to reply from Gmail account using Hotmail address in Mail app in iPhone iOS 6?

    Hello,
    Since the iOS 6 upgrade on my 4 iPhone, the "imap.gmail.com" won't work.
    I had my e-mail set up as "other" and would receive my Hotmail in Gmail using imap, so I could reply using my Hotmail address.
    So I deleted everything and tried again but it still won't work.
    In the mean time, I am using the Gmail App but can't use the Apple Mail app because it won't reply from my Hotmail address, and I do not want to have to choose my reply-to address; I didn't have to before.
    I do not want to use my Gmail address for anything.
    I want to always use my Hotmail address.
    Praying for help! I want to be able to use my Mail app like before!
    Also not sure if the Gmail app is killing my battery, or if the new iOS 6 is....
    Thanks so much.

    I said I want to use my Hotmail ADDRESS only. Not the Hotmail e-mail.
    I check my Hotmail in Gmail. I love how Gmail is set up.
    I've tried deleting and recreating.
    In order to check my Hotmail in Gmail on the iPhone, and reply from my Hotmail address using Gmail, you have to set up your mail on the iPhone using "other" when adding an e-mail account.
    Since the upgrade, it will no longer let me use the "imap" feature and based on my research, it seems like everyone is having this issue.
    Yes, I can use the Gmail e-mail account, but when I reply it'll show my Gmail address and I'd like it to show my Hotmail address WITHOUT having to use a drop-down menu and switch the reply-to address.
    Hope that clarifies.

  • Replying to Cases - Changing "From" Email

    This was my question:
    When replying to a case from within the BC system I click "New Message" (from within the case) and type my message and hit send. However, it only gives me the option for one from email address, the email I am logged in with. Is there a way to change this email address to another email that I am using within the system? For instance I have [email protected] and I want the email to come from that email, not my login email. Is this possible?
    I was told by Live Chat that this is not possible and the only email address I can send from is the one used to login.
    I would like to make a feature request to, hopefully, be added in the future. With most of my clients they only have one login to the system and this login can be in majority of cases outside of the domain (especially if using BC email). Instead of having the reply sent from the login email it would be beneficial to have the choice of what email to send from. These can be verified in the system as you do email marketing "from" email addresses. This way an user with one login can send a reply from [email protected], [email protected], etc. whatever email address is appropriate.
    Thanks!

    Don't know if this helps, but I had similar issue - only with GMail. I could only send messages 'from' my GMail address (which I don't really use - I have my own address) and couldn't change this - even though in the web based version of GMail I can.
    When creating a new account, instead of selecting 'Google Mail' from the 'Add account' screen, I selected 'other' and entered the settings manually - this allowed me to select another email address for the account whilst still putting in all the correct IMAP/SMTP account details. With a little bit of playing with the setup I got it all to work exactly the same as the original account which I then just disabled.
    So I guess you just need to look up the correct settings for use with MobileMe and enter them manually... but putting in the email address you want to use on the very first screen (the name/address/password/description screen)

  • How do I send emails from various accounts in gmail from my iPad?

    I imap 3 accounts through my gmail account. Gmail, in it's browser form, allows me to choose from which account I send an email from  in a drop-down menu. I don't see how to do this on the iPad mail app or through safari for iPad.
    If not possible, what are ur solutions for efficiently responding to emails from various accounts on the iPad (network solutions, gmail, and university).
    Thanks!

    If you log into Gmail from a computer, you can specify in the settings to always reply from the account the email came from. You should only have to do it once for each account.

  • How to reply from the same email account?

    I have multiple email accounts. When I receive an email from an alternate account, not the default account, and I respond to this email it is automatically responding from the default account.
    I can change it to an alternate email address as on previous iOS versions- that's not my question.  I just want to be able to reply directly from the account the email was sent to. Am I missing something?
    * kudos to the multiple signatures one for each account, but it doesn't help if I'm responding from the wrong account.

    I think there is a contradiction in your requirements. You want two people to share an account and you don't want either to interfere with the other.
    The short and simple answer is to use IMAP to connect to the mail server. If your current email provider doesn't offer IMAP, find another that does. This is old technology already and it's disgraceful that some email providers haven't yet put it in place.
    IMAP means that your messages are stored on the server and both of you will see exactly the same set of messages. And therein lies the contradiction; you will both see changes made by the other so you are inherently interfering with one another.
    Caveats: some providers may not permit you both to access the account concurrently, and even if they do, things may become interesting if you both choose to work on the same message simultaneously.
    Note that all of this is about email servers and protocols; your choice of Thunderbird as your email client has little bearing on the situation.

  • I changed my email on my Apple ID but it says my old email is still connected to the account. How do I unassociate my old email from my account?

    I was trying to switch my iTunes Apple ID email (A) to my new email address (B), but it told me my new email address (B) was already in use as another Apple ID. I sent myself a reset password email because I hadn't gotten any emails at that address (B) from iTunes before. The account under my email (B) was registered to a different name but had not been used (billing info wasn't even set up), so I set it up under my name and then changed the email on the account to a third email address (C). I thought that would now make my new email address (B) available to be switched and used on my original account as planned, but Apple is telling me that the email address (B) is still associated with the second account, even though the third email address (C) has been verified and made primary for that account. How do I get my email address (B)unattached from my account?

    Go to appleid.apple.com, log in with new ID. Change 'apple ID and primary email address' back to old ID.
    Delete the icloud account on the iphone.  (It should let you now that the ID was changed back).
    Go to appleid.apple.com, log in with OLD ID. Change 'apple ID and primary email address' back to NEW ID.
    And sign back into icloud with the new ID.

  • When replying an email from my icloud alias, it's being sent from primary account

    Hi everybody
    I have experienced a little problem which is that when I'm replying to an e-mail from my iphone using my icloud alias, my reply is being sent from my primary e-mail and not from my alias as it should be sent.
    That's happening only when I reply from the iphone, not when using webmail icloud.com.
    Has anybody experienced the same issue ever?
    Thanks

    It may be that you have more than one outgoing mail account, and you're sending from the wrong one. From the Mail menu bar, select
              Mail ▹ Preferences...
    The Mail preference dialog opens. Select the Composing tab from the row of icons at the top. From the menu labeled
              Send new messages from:
    choose
              Account of selected mailbox
    Note that this setting may have no effect if you start a new message while a VIP or smart mailbox is selected in the mailbox list. Those are saved searches, not actual mailboxes.
    If the problem remains, select the Accounts tab in the preference dialog, then select the affected account in the list on the left.
    In the Account Information pane, select the correct server in the menu labeled
              Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)
    If there's only one server in the menu, select
              Edit SMTP Server List...
    and add a new server with the correct settings. If you're not sure how to do that, try the Mail Settings Lookup.
    Another possibility is that the wrong card in your address book is selected as yours. Select your card in the Contacts application. Then select
              Card ▹ Make This My Card
    from the menu bar.

  • Purchased a 2nd hand iPhone - unable to set up as it displays as associated with prior owners email - he has removed device from his account but still won't let me complete set up. Any advice on next steps?

    Display shows previous owner set up find my phone function & it is linked to their apple account. Owner has removed device from a/c but
    it still won't allow me to proceed with set up.

    Hello Penng185,
    Steps to be done to remove the device from the previous owner's iCloud Account, if you have already done this things then there might be something that you might have missed due to which the iPhone is still showing the Find My iPhone Activation Lock screen.
    Resolution : http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4515
    If the previous owner is with you and can access the device
    Ask them to enter their Apple ID and password on the Activate iPhone screen (shown above) to remove the device from their account. You can then proceed through the rest of the device setup process.
    If the previous owner is not present
    Contact them and ask them to follow these steps to remove the device from their account:
    Sign in to their iCloud account at www.icloud.com/find.
    Choose the device from their Find My iPhone device list by clicking All Devices and selecting the correct device.
    Click "Remove from Account" to remove the device from the account.
    After the device has been removed from the previous owner’s account, turn it off by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button located on the top right side of the device. Then restart your device and proceed with device setup as you would normally.

  • "Send [email] from Selected Account..." is nearly random. Anyone else?

    +I don't think its just me, but maybe it is:+
    Do other people have issues with multiple email accounts
    in that sending an email with this preference set, tends to be almost random?:
    You can send email to a person you have emailed a hundred times, but if you don't double-check the source account - and it may go from the WRONG account. It wasn't the SELECTED account, it may not even be a
    much used account (email address).
    You can fire 2 emails back-to-back, to 2 different destinations, and the 2nd seems to have arbitrarily
    selected another account to send from.
    This is more than a little bit galling, if you intend to email certain people ONLY from a special account.
    Say, for example, people who indulge in viral emails, etc.
    Eventually half your contacts have half your email addresses - and now you are in spam **** again,
    as soon as one of your recipients sends one of these viral emails out in a group email.

    I've submit this as a problem in the "reply" to Apple.
    If others are finding it a problem, I hope they do too.
    Here are some scenarios that underscore it.
    Having the ability to set a default FROM address in MAIL to a given destination is fairly important.
    Especially when you are trusting your machine to automate the correct event.
    If you have multiple email addresses, one has them for a reason.
    You send from only certain ones - to certain people, for a reason:
    For example, contacting a subordinate or boss at work, from your home account.
    I have found the said contacted colleague will sometimes send work communication to my home account by mistake.
    Instead of getting a last minute meeting notice while at work, it goes to a home account I don't pick up very often.
    Or, if sent from an account one picks up on their iPhone... Now I get long messages that I would prefer not receiving on that device. Simply because the wrong SEND account was used, but not actually CHOSEN by me. (We all have those relatives, don't we?)
    Once an address is "compromised" by inadvertently sending from the wrong address:
    well, you accounts are free of spam only so long as your contacts are secure.
    You are only as good as your least capable correspondent & spam filter.
