I've figured out what is happening. I'm usually composing a new message
when Evolution is "positioned" on my current IMAP folders (from the SMTP
+IMAP) account. It then uses the IMAP account. If Evolution is
"positioned" on the "On This Computer" default folder it uses the
[default] marked account/address.

Can't Evolution be configured to still use the [default] marked
account/address even if positioned on IMAP folders or when replying to
messages in these folders?

Thanks,
