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!!!!!

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!

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.

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 account

How do I change the default outgoing email?
Just noticed that the email to response my emails is not the one I wanted to be, my iPad receives mail from 6 different accounts
Somebody can tell me how can I change it?

@Matthew: By "Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars" I presume you meant "System Preferences>Mail, Contacts, Calendars".
There *is* a list of my mail accounts there, but I'm seeing no option to "select the DEFAULT account for new messages".
Am I missing something?
[ Mountain Lion 10.8 ]
UPDATE:
Here's what I found on CNET (and worked):
Mail.app>Preferences>Composing>
Then there is option to choose "Send new messages from"
[NB: The Mac term is not "Settings"; it's "Prefernces" [ Command-. ]

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.

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.

Setting up outgoing email profile

Hi,
I am trying to setup a new outgoing email profile to use for scanning on my HP 8600 using a gmail account.
I keep getting "Incorrect credentials" when I test the setup (my credentials are correct). I've tried different ports and turning the "SMTP server requires authentication for outgoing e-mail messages" on and off. Still the same error.
Help!

Hello help_me_please9,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand you are having issues setting up Scan to Email, I have a suggestion that may be helpful to you. Gmail as a Two-step Verification within their Email settings that helps secure your account. Try disabling this, if enabled, and see if it allows you to then setup Scan to Email.
Log into your Gmail Email account.
Click Email or icon in right corner and then Account.
Click Security.
Under Account permissions> Access for less secure apps, click Settings.
Enable it and click Done.
Re-run the Scan to Email setup.
Let me know if this helps.

Why isn't the default outgoing email setting working correctly?

In my mail preferences I have send new messages from a specific email address selected. However, mail just keeps sending from the inbox address I am currently in. I really need the default to work. It used to before I upgraded to Mountain Lion.

I am having the same problem after upgrading to Mountain Lion. If I don't change the option in the composition window ("From" tab), it chooses another server, mostly the iCloud address. I want it to just use the default at the moment. I wonder, if other people are having the same problem?
Thank you,
Gloria

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.
Try this addon:

Setting up outgoing email using sky

Hi we are having trouble transferring our existing email address to sky broadband. We previously transfered our virgin email account to orange broadband no problems but have recently changed our broadband provider to sky. Now we can recieve incoming mail ok (on the virgin email address) but cannot send outgoing mail from our computer, virgin say they are ok with us using their server/address still and sky claim there is nothing they can do. Can anyone shed some light, I have read a few comments about ISP's not letting you use other ISP's email addresses, is this the case ? Do we really have to change our email address again ???? Help !

Hello, Can anyone tell me how to change the default colour for my signature and email replies from BLUE to BLACK?Currently, I only see the option to 'format' each individual email reply. I don't know why the default colour for the text and the signature is BLUE but I would really like to change it to BLACK. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,interloper1969

Don't know how I overlooked this before but the following is the expected result
Composing a new email, black text
Reply or forward to a email, blue text
These cannot be changed so I'll share your feedback internally for future consideration
Thanks!

How do I set my outgoing email up to send mails I've entered the correct settings but still to no avail

Hi there folks I cannot send emails from my phone , I can however receive them, my network provider is eircom I have entered the outgoing mail settings as suggested on the eircom site but still to no avail? any suggestions grealy appreciated, Des,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

With an internet connection, receiving email with the correct settings should not be a problem, but sending email can be a problem depending on the internet service provider being used for your internet connection at the time and if the email account provider does not have an authenticated SMTP server.
Most, if not all internet service providers block the use of SMTP servers that are outside of their network or not provided by the ISP being used for your internet connection at the time unless the SMTP server is authenticated.
