MS Office Forum / Outlook / General MS Outlook Questions / May 2008email accounts for sending only
Okay, so I have an email address, in this example, I'll use: melissa@events.com events.com is a website I have that allows me to set up forwarding accounts. So, my server has a "forwarding" email address for melissa@events.com. This address is being forwarded to denise@prodigy.net Now, when I set up the account for "Melissa@events.com" in Outlook, I have it set up as the servers (incoming & outgoing) are the prodigy servers. I also have it set up to login with the prodigy login information. But, I don't really want to download the email. I don't want it to use that incoming server here, since the melissa@events.com is being forwarded to denise@prodigy.net. I also have an account in Outlook for denise@prodigy.net and this is the web account where I want to download the incoming from. How do I tell Outlook this? BTW, I have Outlook 2002 and a vista system. Thanks!! Not sure whether that answers your problem but why don't you get the email at melissa@events.com deleted after it gets forwarded to denise@prodigy.net? > Okay, so I have an email address, in this example, I'll use: > [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] > > Thanks!! do you mean at my site events.com or in the account in outlook for melissa@events.com? > Not sure whether that answers your problem but why don't you get the email at > melissa@events.com deleted after it gets forwarded to denise@prodigy.net?

All you do is create an email address (through the service that supports my website, my host) & tell it where to forward any incoming emails. It only forwards, I never login to the webmail & type responses, because they all go to the prodigy email address. > Yes, at the site events.com > [quoted text clipped - 26 lines] > > > > > > > > Thanks!! Then it should all be fine. Your outlook can try to read messages at your web site, it won't find anything... or does it complain it can't access the mailbox? > The email address is only a forwarding email address, that isn't a choice > when you set up a forwarding email address.

I just went in & turned off the "receive" option. in send/receive options. We'll see how that goes. > Then it should all be fine. > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > where to forward any incoming emails.

If you don't want to receive mail from the melissa@events.com address, don't create an account that references those servers. If you want to receive mail only from denise@prodigy.com, then have only that one account. If you want to be able to SEND from either account, then modify your send/receive group so that the melissa account doesn't receive. By the way, you likely will have problems using Outlook 2002 on Vista. Only Outlook 2003 and 2007 are supported on Vista.  SignatureBrian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] I've chosen your second Option, I do want to send. And, if this doesn't do it, I guess I'll upgrade my outlook. I think it came with Express, but I wanted the full Outlook, so we installed it onto the laptop. Oh well. It seemed to work fine, up until I needed to make these changes to streamline my email. I've got too many addresses which require checking & this does make it easier. I'll keep you posted as to how it goes.
