What you describe is usually caused by accounts using the wrong SMTP server settings, and this happens more often when two or more accounts use the same SMTP server. This can usually be cleared up by these steps: # - click to account settings and scroll down to 'Outgoing Server (SMTP) and ciick. # - this shows all of your SMTP servers in a list. # - edit the DESCRIPTION field for each one to have the appropriate email account. this is just for documentation. # - now, click to account settings, and highlight the account name in left column of first account. this displays the pane that has link to the account's SMTP server at bottom. If it is not displaying the correct email address, press thes drop-down arrow and change as needed. # - repeat this step for each account so that, when done, each account is affixed to its proper SMTP server.
