Outlook Express sending mail as other identity?

I have two identities set up on Outlook Express. (v6.00) I have it set up to always open under one identity, (my primary identity) and that aspect works fine. However, whenever I send an email from the primary identity, either by reply or new mail, OE always sends the email from my secondary identity. Has anyone seen this issue before? If so, is there anything I can do to fix it?

Thanks!
 
Remove the other identity completely. Reboot and then set it up again. Make sure you get the pop address and smtp address exactly right. Assuming of course you use pop.

Under Tools > Internet Accounts you need to set the one you want to send from as default.
