Thanks for suggestions about this one.
It turned out the fault was VERY obscure! In MAIL - preferences - composing - addressing, there's a choice "send new mail from" which was set to "account of last viewed mail" and I changed that to my new e-mail address.

Imac Intel OSX 10.4.9 MAIL 2.1.1

I recently changed from an <it.net> e-mail account to a <people.net> one, I've deleted the old one in MAIL preferences, and I'm both sending and receiving e-mails OK.

However, when I send them they still show my e-mail address as @it.net.au. Thus any replies sent to this don't reach at my <people.net address. I used to have the option of chosing my sending address but don;t have it any longer - only the <it.net one, which isn't even in my MAIL account system any more!

I've tried to reload MAIL, but without success - can't find it as software on the OSX install disc. Would I need to reinstall OSX to do this

How can I force MAIL to send my e-mails from the correct <people> and/or show that on the e-mail headers,

Thanks,

Dick Anderson
