Default Outlook Associate from email address with contact's email to addr

When using Outlook to manage multiple outgoing email accounts many users
frequently send emails out using the wrong email account which sometimes
negatively impacts business relationships. Outlook does a good job when
replying to emails of using the from address that the orginal email was
addressed to, but when sending a new email it is easy to forget to change the
from address.

My suggestion is to add the ability to the contact list to associate a from
address with a contact and/or with each email address you have in your
address book for that contact. That way if I just create a new email and put
a to address in there the from address will be automatically populated with
the correct "Business" or line of business and avoid confusion and the
negative ramifications of having to explain the mutliple businesses.
