Sometimes, on Replies, TB uses the wrong "From" address.

I use TB for 8 email accounts. I receive most mail with my 'main' account, and sometimes when I Reply to a message it shows as being sent from my 'work' account. They're both POP accounts, and neither is Gmail.

I usually catch and stop it when I click 'Send', and I can change it by clicking the From line and selecting the correct address.

Normally it should reply from the same account where you once received it.

I'm aware that it should reply from the same account where you once received it.

Most of the time it does, but often times a Reply comes up with the wrong 'From' address in it. As I mentioned, when it happens i usually catch it and can change it. But it is a problem I'd like fixed.

When it happens, I make sure which account the message came in on, and will hit Reply more than once to see that it repeats the problem and it always does.

Please. I'd like a response that will help me. No offense, Gnospen, but your post is worthless - it provides no answer. I've posted some questions here that have had replies to without any solutions, and I'd prefer not see that.

My worthless answer was just to eliminate the handlers misunderstanding of how it should work. I would like some insight into the difference between functional and not functional mail. I can't reproduce it.
