Make sure that you have SMTP Authentication set in the Advanced Sending
Options of your mac.com account, if you're using their SMTP server (as you
have to if you have it set as an IMAP account). Set it "use same settings as
receiving server". If you're using it as POP, then you can use either the
mac.com or your ISP as SMTP server (sending mail). But some ISPs won't let
you send from another SMTP server - they insist that you send from theirs.
maybe that's changed - ask your ISP. It doesn't matter if you have to use
their SMTP server (except you can't use IMAP then, you have to use POP).
usually ISPs don't require authentication, but if they do, you'll have to
enter the ISP's password here, not "same as receiving server", since the
receiving server is mac.com's.
In either case, if you go to the Options page of ALL your accounts, and in
the "Additional Headers" box, enter:
Reply-To
and next to it, in the box at the right, enter
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
then ALL your accounts will show reply to your mac.com address even though
they may show your message as coming FROM your other address.
