Default Incorrect 'From' addresses in OE Replies

When someone replies to one of my email messages, the 'From' field of the
reply may (not always) contain my own address, rather than the sender's.

I use Win XP/SP2 and OE6. The Update 'Cumulative Security Update for
Outlook Express for Windows XP (KB923694)' is loaded, and all Windows XP
updates have been loaded automatically.

Any suggestions or resolutions would be appreciated. Thanks

OE replies with the From address being the account that actually downloaded
the message. If the different accounts are actually aliases for the same
mailbox on the server then the first of the aliases polled will download all
of the messages. Click in the From field to choose a different one.

Answer in newsgroup. Don't expect an answer to email.
