 Thunderbird 38.1.0

I'm on webpage and click on an email address on the page to contact the party. I do and it goes to Thunderbird. Perfect, but I have FOUR email accounts, all controlled by T-bird, and it goes to one I DO NOT want to use. Every time. How do I make/select the one of my four email accounts I have on T-bird as the default ?
