Problem Forwarding mail from "MAILBOX"

I wish to only send all my mail from a personal e mail server.

When I FWD email save in my "MAILBOX" it defaults to my @me.com email.

I do not wish this. I wish it to use only my personal email address.

 

I have chosen my preferred email account for outgoing email. It will not recognize my choice.

This works on all of my other MAC computers except this one.

 

This is an OS X 10.7.5

and Mail is 5-3version

A:

Try Mail/Preferences/Accounts /Account Information. Select an account, then go to Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP). From the drop down menu select Edit SMPT server list. Then set up a server for each mail account so that is associated with the e-mail address. Then go to each account and set that server as the Outgoing Mail Server (SMPT). You can click Use only this server if desired.

    This is the correct answer for all my other Mac computers.

    However this Particular Mac does not Recognize the "Use this Outgoing Server" Choice.

     

    Thanks

    You are welcome. Just make sure the correct server is selected. Mail/Preferences/Composing - Send new messages from allows you to chose the server.
