How do I fix the contents of the "Reply To:" field so that it always contains my e-mail adderess? At the moment I type the first character of my e-mail address and I am given a list of addresses (from Address Book ?) starting with this character. I then have to select one. But I always want the reply to be sent to my one and only e-mail address.
Mail will by default use your sending account as the reply-to address, unless you manually specify another using this field. If you want to use your own email then simply leave this field blank.
I don't want receipients to reply to my "From:" address which is "@ my internet service provider" because I may want to change my ISP. My e-mail address is an alias which I hope to continue using for life.
I see. Unfortunately I'm not sure how to specifically set Mail to auto-populate the Reply-To field, but you can set it to use an email alias instead of your main account name. It will send from and recieve replies to this alias, in essence creating a new email identity while using the same account.
To do this, go to the Accounts section of the Mail preferences and select your account. In the "Account Information" tab locate the "Email Address" field and then add your aliases separated by commas. If you are using an Apple iCloud account then you will have a drop-down menu to manage your aliases.
Sometimes this detail will require your email provider to support different aliases for the same account, so it may not work unless you adjust some settings with your provider.
Many thanks. My Account Type is POP and I have two POP accounts, one for me and one for my wife, @"ISP name". I have tried what you suggest. This gives my alias as another "From:" option but does not affect the "Reply To:" options. When sending an e-mail I would still have to key something into the "Reply To:" field, which is what I am trying to get away from.
