Set Default Outgoing Email address

I have the curve 8330, and two email addresses. One is for my work, the other my private. I'd like to use my private email as the default for all outgoing messages. I have used the following "Advanced options -> default service -> change CMIME filed -> press menue -> click save.
I have my personal email set as default on both the 'change' options, however, when I send out a message my work email is showing up as the 'from' address. How can I change this option without permanently deleting my work email. I want to be able to read my work email, however, that is the extent of it on my personal BB.
Thanks,
Solved!

HI and Welcome to the Forums!
I don't know if this is a feature on your BB/OS, but run some tests to see. What happens on mine is the first time I initiate a new email to a contact in my contact list, it will indeed default to my work address -- and I must override it to whichever of my personal addresses I might want. But, the second time I send to that contact, it remembers the address I used as "from" the last time...and uses that as the default this next time. I've actually come to very much like this feature as I don't have to, in subsequent email sessions, remember to change it...just the first time.
Cheers!

Setting default outgoing email address

I have multiple email addresses that I use in Mail, on my MacBook. Most of them are gmail accounts. Two are godaddy accounts, with personal domain names. I want to have a "main" one (a gmail account) that all my mail goes out from. If I'm in the "wrong mailbox," it goes out from that mailbox, hence getting missed by people, who have rules set up to look for email from my main email address.
So, I followed the instructions, in the help setting, which said:
How to change the default account and "From" address
Mac OS X 10.0 through 10.1.5
The default account when composing a new message in Mail is the one listed first in the Description column of Mail Preferences. To change this default, you only need to change the order of the names.
Follow these steps:
1. Choose Mail > Preferences.
2. Click Accounts.
3. Drag account names in the Description column to change their order. The account that is listed first is the default account that is used whenever you open a new mail window.
Mac OS X 10.2 and later
The "From" address for a new message will generally be the same as the "To" address of the message that is currently selected. If no message is selected, then the "From" address associated with the currently selected mailbox will be used, if there is one. Otherwise, the default "From" address will be used as described above.
This is not so, so 10.6.3 Mac OS X. Does anyone know how to make my "main" address the default outgoing email address, whatever address box is highlighted?
Thanks in advance!!!!!

Default outgoing email address

I have several email addresses and would like to link a specific address for individual contacts. Is there a way to set a default outgoing email address for specific contacts?

Thank you SO MUCH for this information. I've read so many other places that the default email address is the address listed at the top of the Preferences>Accounts list, and yet, whenever I send an email, it gets sent from whichever account is highlighted. I've never been able to figure out the discrepancy. I'm so glad I looked deeper and found this post. Thank you!

Changing default outgoing email address

So, my AppleID is an @me.com address. I created when I was still in college and put my birth year into the ID out of frustration that [email protected] had already been taken; for the purpose of this we'll call it [email protected]
I've since recognized the value of having an email address that doesn't broadcast one's age and created a more generic alias in the account, we'll call it [email protected]
Previously, on both my iPhone and my iPad, I was able to select "[email protected]" as the default outgoing email address in Mail, a much easier way to always send from that address without having to manually select in the FROM drop down menu. Now, in iOS 5 with iCloud, that doesn't seem to be the case. It always wants to use my main AppleID, "[email protected]" The only way to change it is to manually select in the drop down menu every single time I send an email.
I've looked through every iCloud and Mail setting I can possibly think of. Suggestions? Thanks!

Under Settings, Mail,Contacts,Calendars, for each individual mail account, what are your SMTP settings?
When you tap on an account, then tap on the Account Name on the next screen, then tap on SMTP, you will see all the SMTP accounts you have set up. If you want an account to only use a particular SMTP server when sending from that account or replying to messages received in that account, then you need to set that desired SMTP account as the primary server, and turn all other SMTP servers OFF.

Default outgoing email address for multiple emails

How do I set up one of my many email addresses on my I-phone to be the default outgoing email for all of them?

If you have set up one of your email accounts to be the default, all emails sent from outside of the email app will be sent from that email address. The default email account will be used if a new email is created in the All Inbox. If you reply to an email or initiate an email from within a given email account, I guess it assumed that you want it to go out as that email address.

Setting default send email address/account

I have 2 pop email address' setup in my BB. How do I set which is used for outgoing email messages?

Welcome to the forums
For replying, it will default to the account that received the email. For new emails, go to Options>Advanced Options>Default Services, and set the default "Messaging (CMIME) to the email you prefer over here and save.

Default outgoing email address is wrong, how do I change it ?

I've been using Thunderbird successfully for several years with 6 different email accounts - 1 gmail account, 2 yahoo accounts, and 3 accounts on another domain.
Recently I added a new gmail account for a project I'm working on.
Now, the default email address defaults to the new account, which is not what I want at all.
If I'm replying to or forwarding emails or writing new emails I want the address that I'm sending from to default to the mailbox that I'm currently using, replying from or forwarding from.
If that just isn't possible, I'd be happy if it defaulted to my general email address (the first one I had) but I certainly don't want Thunderbird to use the email address for the new account, which my project colleagues want only to be used in connection with the project.
How do I resolve this, please ?

There is an assumption thast if you are viewing emails in a particular account and then select Write, that you are wanting to Write an email to do with the account you are viewing, so....
If you are viewing emails in account A and then click on Write, the FROM email address will be Account A,
If you are viewing emails in account B and then click on Write, the FROM email address will be Account B,
you can set any account as default.
This will be the one positioned at the top.
* Tools > Account Settings
* Select the account name
* click on 'Account Actions'
* click on 'Set as default'
* click on OK
If you want to reorganise more than just setting the default account.

How do I set up two email address on the same account?

Using Mail in Mac OS X 10.6.2 and moving to Mac for the first time, I have been unable to set up two email addresses on the same account. Entering them, separated by commas, as advised in the Help does not seem to work. I have tried making them both the same password and have tried separating the passwords with a comma but no luck. Unable to set up another account for the second address because it correctly tells me that the account already exists.
Is there a way?
Thanks for any help.
AllanGlen

After a comprehensive trial and error session, using a new Guest Account each time to be sure of no contamination from the previous trial, I have finally cracked it!
The problem was logging on to the outgoing server.
Setting up the first account was fairly straightforward but if I allow Mail to do it automatically I am unable to send because Mail has defaulted to 'Authentication Required' when my server does not require it. Setting the account manually without authentication enables send and receive to work OK.
If i try to set up the second account automatically, Mail crashes.
If I set it up manually and choose 'No Authentication', Mail crashes.
If I set it up manually and choose 'Authentication Required' and enter the full email address as the User Name together with password, Mail crashes.
If I set it up manually and choose 'Authentication Required' and enter the first part of the email address together with password, Mail crashes.
However, if I set it up manually and choose 'Authentication Required' and enter the first part of the email address as User Name and no password, Mail accepts it and sets up the account.
At this point the account receives mail but cannot send it.
If I go into the Mail preferences and try to edit the outgoing server details, Mail will not accept no Authentication.
I eventually found that if I uncheck the 'Always Use This Server' box, all account then use the server on the first account, which is correctly set up.
Now I have my four email accounts all able send and receive.
One little concern remains. In Outlook Express I could look at the properties of a received email and see what address it had come from, together with many other details. I haven't found out yet whether this can be done in Mail. I just wonder whether if I reply to some email, it will appear to have come from a different address from the one it was sent to.
Thanks again for all the inputs.

How to set default "from" email in Launchpad

Where do you set up the default from email address in BI Launchpad so that when scheduling reports so that this does not have to be filled in everytime? Additionally, we would want this to be read-only so that it cannot be changed.
We are using Crystal Server 2011:

Log in to the CMC and go to Servers. Go the the Destination properties of each "Job Server". Select the "Email" destination and you can set the default "From" address there that should apply to all schedules.

Defaulting the email address in From field.

Hi ,
I am working on requirement to default the email address in from field and populate the eligible emails ID 's as drop down in from field based on some condition. So I need to overwrite the standard emails data that are already coming in from field.Please see the attachment for your reference.
I did below analysis.
Component:CRMCMP_CCS_EML
View:Email header
Method: DO_PREPRRE_OUTPUT.
I achieved populating the drop down values..by populating the values in typed_context->mail->gt_default_from_addresses.
But my requirement is to default one email based on some condition. So I populated the default value as first entry in the drop down list box so that it will automatically default.
It's working as expected if we have personalizing setting for Drop down list as 'Default'.Please see the attachment for your reference. But it's not working if we have settings like 'By Value' and 'By Key'.
Ex: If I have two emails in GT_DEFAULT_FROM_ADDRESS like .[email protected],CC(First entry Default)[email protected](Second entry). if I use the settings 'Default' it's default with [email protected] if i use other setting it's defaulting with [email protected]
Could any one has any idea how to handle this..and options that we have in this case.
Or is there any other field I can default for From Field. (This should work for New ,Reply and Reply all )
I appreciate your help on this.
Thanks,
SaraSAP.

Hi Sara,
I believe that selection is controlled by attribute typed_context->mail->GV_SELECTION_FROM.
So, when you populate the possible entries in typed_context->mail->gt_default_from_addresses, just try to fill your desired default value in mentioned attribute and check if that works.
Kind regards,
Garcia

Changing outgoing email address from iphone

I currently have my MobileMe account set up on my iphone, and it is using my MobileMe ID as my email address <Edited by Host>. However I would like to set it up with my alias<Edited by Host>. Is there a way to change this setting on the phone? I know I can change the outgoing email address from mail on my computer, but I don't see that function on my iphone.
Thanks

You can set up MobileMe to use any email address as a 'push' email on the iPhone. The first thing you need to do is set your non-MobileMe (.Mac) email address for auto-forward to your MobileMe (.Mac) account.
When you create the email account, make sure you set it up as Other (not as a .Mac or MobileMe account.) Then select IMAP as the type of account. Enter the name and auto-forwarded email address. (This is the email address that will show as the "From" email, even though you're using your MobileMe account.)
For your mail server settings, use your MobileMe settings:
* Incoming settings:
o Host Name: mail.mac.com
o User Name: MobileMe user name
o Password: MobileMe password
* Outgoing Settings:
o Host Name: smtp.mac.com
o User Name: MobileMe user name
o Password: MobileMe password
* Advanced:
o Use SSL - On
o Authentication - Password
o Server Port - 587
Now you're able to receive 'push' email from your non-MobileMe account, and reply without using the @me.com address. (You can use those same settings in the Mail App as well.)

Sharepoint Outgoing Email Address

I am looking to configure the outgoing Sharepoint (2010) Email address with the logged in users email address instead of the default. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks. LK

Not with the out of the box functionality. So for things like Alerts, you'll be stuck with the farm or Web Application outgoing email address.

Setting "reply to" email address to different address

Hi
<edited by host> I do not want to use the email address that they provide. I want to be able to receive the email from one server account (call it A) when I am at home and, even though I am using a different account for sending email from there, I want the email address that appears on the top of my messages to reflect the address from that account (A) and not the address from which I am sending it. I have managed to do this on my PCs where I can receive mail from one place, set the account that I want to appear on the top of the outgoing email to whatever I want folks to see, and set the outgoing email to go from a different account. The best that I can get on my MAC is that I now have to click on "use selected server" whenever I want to send the message. I am sorry for asking what must be a seemingly stupid question but I want to use my MAC as my main internet computer and need to find a way to set my email so that people's replies to my messages don't go to an email address that I have no intention of using. Any advice??????

If this is the question I think it is, then this has nothing to do with Mac OS X Server (which is the subject of this discussion forum); this looks to be a straight-on question involving the Apple Mail configuration and your particular ISP(s).
To implement what (I'm guessing) you want to do here (in 10.5), launch Apple Mail. Select the Mail menu - Preferences - Accounts - select the account you want to effect - in the email address box, enter a comma-separated list of email addresses you want to "send from" with the specified email server.
Presuming the server permits it, you can then select which address you want with the particular email server when you're sending your email.
Alternatively, you can just have the particular reply address here, and not whatever was originally entered for use with the account. This is what Camelot points to in his reply.
This comma-separated sequence works with 10.5; it's been a while since I've worked with 10.4 and I've long-since forgotten most everything I ever knew about 10.3.
And FWIW, not all mail servers at all ISPs will accept this particular redirection mechanism.
