As far as the problem you are seeing, if you try and reply to the e-mail
with the "incorrect" address, does it go back to the right place, or does it
respond to first.last@xxxxxxxxxx? What address do you see for the Reply-to
address in the message headers?
Is Outlook set up to work in MAPI mode, or is it set up as a POP3/IMAP
client?
If you go back into the user properties of a person you changed the default
e-mail address on, did the change stick or did it revert back to the old
reply-to address?

I didn't mean it didn't matter, I just meant that I was only assuming
that this is were the problem was.
I realize that it actually matters, but I was trying to explain the
symptom more generally (the wrong return email appear in all receiving
clients). I was less sure whether or not this is because of an
incorrect Reply-To header.

It is quite possible (and necessary in some cases) for the From address
and
the Reply-to addresses to be different. Take for instance Listservs. It
is
quite normal for the From address to be completely different from the
Reply-to address.

The email addresses in the above message were filtered --
Email is going out as firstname-dot-lastname-at-domain-dot-com
They should be --
firstname-at-domain-dot-com

I've been struggling with getting the correct "Reply-To" address set
in
outgoing messages.
I've read in several places that you just need to set this address as
the "Primary" address under the "Email Addresses" tab in AD.
However, this just isn't working on my installation. User's Windows
login is "john.doe". All of his email is going out as
"john.doe@xxxxxxxxxx," even though I have added "john@xxxxxxxxxx" as
an
email address and set it as his primary/default.
(Note that this may or may not relate to the "Reply-To" SMTP header.
My problem is simply that all of his email that gets delivered via
SMTP
appears to have come from "john.doe@xxxxxxxxxx". Whether or not this
is from the actual Reply-To header is immaterial, I guess. That's
just
my assumption.)
Any have any thoughts on this?
