Send from 2nd Account as Default in Outlook 2010 / Exchange 2010

Hello Folks,

I have an exchange question. I have a client that has 4 employees who each have their own exchange mailbox but also share a full exchange mailbox between them as a secondary "Catch-All" account. This system works better than a public folder because they can see a shared "sent items" folder as well. My questions is when they create a new email, the "From" address appears as the primary account. I have them all "Full Access" permissions to the mailbox so they can manually change the "From" account to the 2nd account.

Is there any way to make Outlook "From" address default to the 2nd account rather than the primary?

Thank you Vasil but I don't want to use the default account but the 2nd account to default to show in the "From" field. Thanks.
