Thanks, but I must not be understanding.  At Edit -> Preferences ->

Composer Preferences -> Send Account I see tmy 3 accounts.  I selected

the one I want to always be the FROM for a particular account.  I have

a test Yahoo account which I then entered in the box at the lower

right, then clicked Close.

I then composed an email in one of the other accounts TO that test

Yahoo account, but when it arrived, the FROM address had not been

changed.

It works if you reply to a message.  When replying the default sending

account is the folder the message is received in: the sending account

override alters that behaviour.

Presumably the thought is that if you are composing a new message you

would set the correct sending account anyway.

P.

That is my intention, but way too often I don't even notice which account has focus when I begin to compose a new message.  That's the case I was hoping for a solution to.

Thanks for the suggestion, though - Peter
