sending from the wrong email address, and please answer less cryptically than what I've seen so far.

I send an email from one of my gmail addresses but it arrives from a different gmail address of mine. I've seen one of your answers, and I follow so: I go to 'Tools' > 'Account Settings' and look at 'Outgoing Server (SMTP)' then I have the option of 'Google Mail - smtp.googlemail.com (Default) or 'Google Mail - smtp.gmail.com' or simply 'Google Mail - smtp googlemail.com'. I've tried all arrangements but the problem remains, or worsens. I saw somewhere to change 'Authentication method' to OAuth2' for my three gmail addresses and did so but this didn't solve the problem. Could you please help me. And talk to me like I'm a 6-year-old, I can't understand much of what I've seen so far really.

Perhaps it would help you if the outgoing server smtp which currently says 'Google Mail 1' an the 'Description' actually said 'tppublication'. Then it would be easier to know which is which.
