I've been using Thunderbird successfully for several years with 6 different email accounts - 1 gmail account, 2 yahoo accounts, and 3 accounts on another domain.

Recently I added a new gmail account for a project I'm working on.

Now, the default email address defaults to the new account, which is not what I want at all.

If I'm replying to or forwarding emails or writing new emails I want the address that I'm sending from to default to the mailbox that I'm currently using, replying from or forwarding from.

If that just isn't possible, I'd be happy if it defaulted to my general email address (the first one I had) but I certainly don't want Thunderbird to use the email address for the new account, which my project colleagues want only to be used in connection with the project.

How do I resolve this, please ?

There is an assumption thast if you are viewing emails in a particular account and then select Write, that you are wanting to Write an email to do with the account you are viewing, so.... If you are viewing emails in account A and then click on Write, the FROM email address will be Account A,

If you are viewing emails in account B and then click on Write, the FROM email address will be Account B,

you can set any account as default. This will be the one positioned at the top.

  • Tools > Account Settings
  • Select the account name
  • click on 'Account Actions'
  • click on 'Set as default'
  • click on OK

If you want to reorganise more than just setting the default account. Try this addon:

I haven't tried the add-on yet, however what's happening is that whether I view emails in Account A or Account B, they always default to Account B which isn't what I want.

In Tools > Account Settings Select the account name click on 'Account Actions' click on 'Set as default' 'Set as default' is greyed out and can't be selected, though I haven't tried all folders; which folder needs to be highlighted when I do this, please ?

In Account Settings the mail accounts are listed in the Left Pane. You select the name of the mail account in the left pane. the top one will be the current default. If you select that mail account name and click on 'Account actions' , the set as default option will be greyed out because it is already the default.

If you do not want that top mail account to be default, select another mail account name and then 'Account Actions' will offer the option to 'set as default'.
