Re: WRONG ADDRESS replied to !!!!

Emails are received in the account the sender specified.
The default account is not a setting to direct incoming mail to a a single account.

Hi,
I am not sure I understand what you mean.
I set up live mail on my pc with an account that I used on windows vista
mail on my old hdd. Lets say its "".
I have a hotmail account which is say "".
I set up windows live mail on another new hdd running windows 7 with the
same address ().
When I use my pc and open windows live mail I send a message to someone from
my "" address - - - I wait for a reply but it does not arrive.
I go online to my hotmail account of and the reply is
there!!
Lots of my earlier contacts are sending posts to me at "" but
they go to the "" location. Just one or two come to my
"" address on my pc.
All I want to do is keep my "" address separate from my
"ddt3333@hotmail". Is this not possible?
I am very confused

Those symptoms are normally caused by user issues, not the software.
- check your rules for both accounts
- check hotmail to ensure forwarding is not enabled
- check your isp(e.g. jay.com or whatever it is) to ensure forwarding is not enabled
- check the address of the sending email on messages in the sent folder.
