when I start Firefox, the default email is gmail. I have more than one gmail account. How do I change the default gmail to the other gmail account?

I have 4 gmail accounts (two for me, one for wife, and one joint email). The default for "email a Link" defaults to my wife's gmail account. I would like to change the default to our joint gmail. I need instructions on how to do this.

Hmm, I think the various built-in options for Email Link are account neutral and the particular account used would be the one that is currently logged in (or if you get a login page, it might show the one that was last logged in). That's not what you're seeing?

Hoped it was simple ............. I was working with Firefox options which did not change the default. However, I logged off and logged in under the other account. Now that comes in as the default. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
