In work I have Thunderbird set up on 5 different computers. Each computer has 3 different emails attached to their Thunderbird

When an email is sent from one computer from the first email it is shown in the receiver's email as the second email address

Example

Receiver Email: test1@gmail.com Sender Email: darren@gmail.com Another Email on my Thunderbird: third@gmail

I send an email to test1@gmail.com from darren@gmail.com. When test1@gmail.com receives the email it shows that third@gmail.com is after sending it although darren@gmail.com sent it.

How can we fix this as it is causing major confusion in the office

With Gmail, each account needs to have its own specific gmail smtp setting. So if you have three different Gmail accounts on an installation of Thunderbird, you need three different and corresponding Gmail settings under Tools|Account Settings|Outgoing Server (SMTP).

It seems to me that darren@gmail.com is using the SMTP for third@gmail.com. Even if you choose the darren account, and the message says it's from "Darren", Googlemail will silently replace the "from" address in your message with the name and address of the SMTP that was used, which would appear to be the one for third@gmail.com

So, make sure you have all the different SMTP settings. Use the working one (third@gmail.com) as a template; you'll need to change the associated email address to match your incoming addresses, so you'll have three SMTP settings, for test1@gmail.com, darren@gmail.com, third@gmail.com.

Then in each account's incoming settings, look under Server Settings where it says which SMTP it uses, and change that to connect it to the appropriate SMTP setting.

On the first time of using each of these new SMTP "accounts" you'll be asked for its password.

As an aside, I find it is clearer if I avoid reliance onthe word "email" and say instead account, message, address, server, client, etc.
