I went to mail help, typed default account in the search box and got
the below:
Setting the account your email is sent from
If you have multiple email accounts, you can choose to send all
messages from the same account, or you can select a different account
for each message you send.
To choose an account from which to send all messages, choose Mail >
Preferences. Click Composing and choose the account from the "Send
new mail from" pop-up menu. By default, messages are sent from the
account of the last viewed mailbox.
To choose an account for a message you're composing, click the
Account pop-up menu and choose an account.
If the Account pop-up menu is not displayed, click the Customize
Header pop-up menu in the header area and choose Customize. Select
the checkbox next to Account and then click OK.
To change the order in which accounts are listed in the mailbox list,
drag the account mailboxes into the order you want in your Inbox. You
can also rearrange the account order in the Accounts pane of Mail
Preferences.

Hi all,
How do you set a e-mail account to be the default account to send out
going e-mail?
I have gone over the mail preferences and can find where you set the
default e-mail account.
Thanks for any help.
