Version Information
Version Added: Outlook 2007
Syntax
expression .SendUsingAccount
expression An expression that returns a MailItem object.
Remarks

If the account is found, then a message is created programmatically and the SendUsingAccount property is assigned to the Pop3 account. Note that you must assign the SendUsingAccount property before you call the Send method.
Sub SendUsingAccount()
Dim oAccount As Outlook.account
For Each oAccount In Application.Session.Accounts
If oAccount.AccountType = olPop3 Then
Dim oMail As Outlook.MailItem
Set oMail = Application.CreateItem(olMailItem)
oMail.Subject = "Sent using POP3 Account"
oMail.Recipients.Add ("someone@example.com")
oMail.Recipients.ResolveAll
oMail.SendUsingAccount = oAccount
oMail.Send
End If
Next
End Sub
