Problem sending emails from specific gmail account

emailgmailmail.app

I have read several of the questions and answers posted about this problem, attempted the solutions, but still have no resolution to the problem. I have two separate gmail accounts…one I use for work related emails and one I use for personal emails. Using Apple Mail, I select the account I want an email response to be sent from (even if someone sends me a work email to my personal email address, for example) and the email continues to default by sending my response using the email address that the sender sent the email to. So, I have set my preference settings to default new emails to be sent from my work email address only…no change. Nothing I have attempted to change in the settings category has helped. Even when I choose a different email address as I'm composing an email, it defaults to the email address that the sender sent it to. Am I missing something?
Thanks for your help!

There are two places in Mail preferences you should look at.

  • One is the Composing Tab

In the make sure you do NOT have selected send from Account of Selected Mailbox, but have the Account of your choice selected.

Mail setting

  • The second one is in the Accounts Tab.

Again check your settings here, and once you have selected the right account then check the use only this account.

This you have to repeat for each account.
