I have 5 email accounts in Thunderbird. So 5 in-boxes. But when i want to send an email Thunderbird takes as a standard the oldest emailaccount as the sender of the email. I can change that per incident but how can i change it permanently ( a new, another of my emailaccounts as the sending adress) ? Answers preferably in Dutch but English or German might work as well.
