I have 2 domain name email accounts. Thunderbird just switched to the *other* domain name email account as default for outgoing mail (without me doing anything), and I need to switch it back. Thank you!!

If you are viewing account A folders and you click on 'Write', it will use the mail account A in the FROM.

If you are viewing account B folders and you click on 'Write', it will use the mail account B in the FROM.

If you are viewing Local Folders and you click on Write, it will use the default account in the FROM.

The default account will be the one displayed at the top of the list in the Folder Pane and in your Account Settings window.

You can change the default account. Tools > Account Settings select the account name click on 'Account Actions' select 'Set as default' click on OK
