Thunderbird sending message from wrong email

more options

When I send (or reply to) an email from my main account, it is sending as from a different account. It does not do this when I am sending through a normal browser or other apps, only Thunderbird. I recently signed up for Google Authenticator and changed the 'Authentication method' under 'Security Settings' to 'OAuth2'. Everything went fine except this. Any advice?

It looks like you have to check that the correct smtp servers are assigned to the corresponding sending accounts:

Gmail is one service that requires the account to match the smtp server.
