Why is Outlook sending email using the wrong account, and how do I fix it?

communication23689951.jpg
Why is Outlook sending email using the wrong account, and how do I fix it?This is a great question, because this is an especially vexing and annoying problem that Outlook has.So here's the situation.You've set up Outlook and, because it's oh ever so helpful and convenient, you've configured several different email accounts to run through it.You can basically set up however many you want.Then Outlook will send email through a specific account that you tell it to.So let's say that you have one main email account that you want to use, or maybe even you have a main email account and then you have another account that you use when you post on blogs and message boards and things like that.You don't want to use your main personal account when you post on blogs and message boards because sometimes those email addresses can be picked up by spammer and who knows who else.You don't want any of that spam or junk mail coming to your regular account.So, you think that you have everything all worked out, Outlook is managing and handling all of your different email accounts just the way that you want it to because, hey, you're not getting any message that it's having trouble and problems doing what you tell it to.And then you notice that it's not working.Your main personal email account is the one showing up when you post on blogs and message boards.Or let's say that you are sending emails to people and horrifically enough, your terrifying ex-girlfriend's name and email account are the ones showing up as the sender because she used to live with you and you two shared a computer.No wonder nobody's writing you back!They all think that your ex is hunting them down!

womenwatchingcomputer16486846.jpg
Imagine this: You're at your in-laws' house.Your spouse has just left you home alone with the parents to go hang out with some old friends.You're going crazy with boredom.You want to read your email but you don't know how to access it on their computer.Will somebody please help you!!

Relax.There is a world of options available to you.

First, think.What kind of email do you have?The easiest way to access your email from another computer is to simply set up an account for free email on an internet site.With something like gmail, aol, hotmail, or yahoo (these are just a few common examples) you can check your mail from any computer at any time.They are a great option for just about anyone and offer address books, calendars, and other attractive features. If you plan on traveling away from your personal computer (and don't own a laptop) it probably makes sense for you to register for one of these email accounts.You might also want to consider using a free email account as your personal email, and use your other email for business.

how does email work?

womanonlaptop30458811.jpg


Email servers are probably about the most complicated servers to set up because not only is there a huge number of security implications to running your own mail server but they also tend to be split up into many small parts taht all do different, highly specialized, things. This page aims to give you an overview of how and email system works. I don't pretend to be an expert on these things but this should be a good starting point.

At the pointy end of the system is the MTA which stands for mail transport agent. This is the bit that does the grunt work of moving email around on the Internet. Probably the most popular MTA is sendmail but there are plenty of others to choose from including courier-mta, postfix and qmail as well as pay for offerings. The MTA probably has the most security issues as it is world facing. There used to be problems (and to some extent there still is) with open relays. These are badly configured MTAs that allow anyone to connect and send email through them. Many modern MTAs make it deliberately quite difficult to configure an open realy.

The availabilty of a quick and painless form of electronic communication has greatly enhanced the abillity of people to communicate. Much of business and personal communication these days requires that you have access to the internet and to some form of email communication. Email allows us to more carefully analyze what we write and communicate. When we speak there is the human element, but we also rarely think carefully about what we say. Writing should allow us to communicate clearly, and with email we can do so frequently.

However, as we all know, there can be problems with email. Sometimes emails do not go where they were supposed to. They seem to disapear occasionaly into the dark. At other times you find that they come back with an `undelivarable' notice. There are lots of different errors occuring with email messages and sending them. Perhaps you have gotten one of these messages recently that reads "relaying denied from your location." What on earth could this mean? There are so many different error messages and so much computer jargon. It can be difficult to tell what your computer is trying to tell you these days.

keyboard30458580.jpg

Most of us use email to communicate. In business or at home we send several emails a day in order to communicate important information. It might be difficult even to imagine trying to do everything without email. It is such an easy method for getting things done, but like most things highly technological, it has its potential problems. Most of us have been working on a computer, perhaps for hours at a time, only to find that what we have been working on is suddenly gone. While we can also easily use papers we write on, an electronic file is almost nothing at all.

It can be erased with the click of the mouse. If the power goes out on the computer you can loose everything you have been working on for days. Most of us have been in this unfortunate situation, although most of us have also unfortunately lost emails we have been writing. This can be just as serious a problem as any other when it comes to loosing electronic files. Emails can have fundamentaly important information in them. Loosing them can be as bad as loosing your house or your car. But how do you get them back. Many computers have a trash bin that holds deleted files on it after you have deleted them individualy. So can you retrieve emails when they have been deleted? Can get back deleted emails from a hotmail account?
