i guess the confusion you have is: _registering_ two accounts doesn't
mean they are both automatically set as default. In the Accounts dialog
you have the option to set one (and only one!) account as your default
account, at which point things work like yannick said in his first post.

Answering your question above:

If you didn't set one of your accounts manually as your default account,
the account you first added to ekiga became your default account
(identifiable by its bold font) and will be used for the call to
my_friend at voip.sipphone.net

If you manually set the second account as your default account, this one
will be used for the call.

Greetings,
Carsten.
