I have 5 different accounts on my Thunderbird, but when I'm trying to send emails with one of these, it always send emails with just one, that it's also a business account! I cannot understand why every account I'm trying to send emails with, it always send them with that specific one! I absolutely need help, and I've just updated to the new version this morning. Thank you for attention guys

1. Are any of these gmail accounts?

2. Check through each incoming account in Account Settings. Make sure each one names the appropriate SMTP server under Account Settings. If you can't tell which SMTP server is being used, you need to go to Account Settings|Outgoing Server (SMTP) and change the description for each SMTP server so you can tell them apart. Note that if you are using several gmail accounts, each needs its own distinct corresponding SMTP server, using the associated outgoing account's username and password.
