Default identity for a folder

Thunderbird Account management

I have 3 identities in Thunderbird. The two extra ones have their own folder (with subfolders). But if I select one of those folders and "new message" it uses the mail identity. How do I make it use the identity that is tied to that folder?

I think this add-on will do that:

Choose the version that matches your TB version.
