Hi

I have happily started to use my 7.1 (upgraded from 7.0!) , thanks to the guidance of all the gurus here.

I also seem to have solved all of the Netscape 7.1 mail issues, but I have a problem which manifested itself when I started using my free netscape.net email account. This also happened in 7.0.

For the first time, I have set up subfolders under 'Local Folders' to store the many mails I download from my netscape.net IMAP account, to keep the webserver clear of mails and conserve space there. However when I open a mail in one of these subfolders and choose to reply to it, the sender address defaults to my other email account (POP3, talk21.com). Although I can use the dropdown list of my mail accounts to change the sender address to my netscape.net account, the subsequent mail cannot be found in any of the 'Sent' folders after I have sent it out successfully!

Any ideas on how I can get round this annoyance, anyone?

That would probably be because your POP3 inbox is set as your default account. To the best of my knowledge, Netscape will use your default e-mail address with e-mail messages in Local Folders, but will use the e-mail address that is used with the corresponding account for all other accounts.

Simple when you know how.

Just went to my Mail window, Click on 'Edit', 'Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings'

In there I highlighted my Netscape Webmail account and clicked the 'Set as Default' button. All OK now.
