        Hi,
it really only helped to reproduce it, at least for me. It didn't help
at all for some other users. What you might ideally do is to apply the
fix:

   $ cd /tmp/
   $ wget https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution/-/commit/6a7df753b5e.patch -O evo.patch
   $ cd /usr/share/evolution/webkit/
   $ sudo patch -p3 </tmp/evo.patch

Press enter twice to acknowledge the test-html-editor-units-bugs.c
cannot be found. Then run Evolution as a regular user.

Ah, I see. If you sort messages to a certain folder and you always use
a single account for those messages, then you can right-click the
folder name in the folder tree, pick Properties and there choose the
correct account as the Send Account Override. It helps to avoid
mistakes. The Edit->Preferences->Composer Preferences->Send Account tab
contains the overrides at a single place, including to prefer certain
account when sending to certain recipient(s) (like when you do not sort
messages to the folders).

        Bye,
