Hi,

I'm using Outlook 2007.
I have a several accounts, and there's a drop down list for them when I
write a new message.
(http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook/HP101024371033.aspx?pid=CH100622151033)

Can I have a separate button for each account in the message toolbars?
(instead of the drop down list)

I saw there's an option to link an account to a contact person in the
"Business Contact Manager", which would also solve my problem, but it turns
out that the Business Contact Manager is not included in Office Enterprise!
real nice...

So in order to not send personal emails with the work account and vice
versa, I think a separate button for each account would help me remember.
Is that possible?

Thanks,
Roee.

No, there is no native way to do this. You can create your own buttons to
set the account via VBA.

Not sure how I should read your remark but an Enterprise usually has a more
centralized solution for this so there is no need for BCM in the Enterprise
SKU. Small Business, Professional and Ultimate contain BCM.
