Details

I have several accounts (involving different protocols - NNTP, IMAP and POP3). For some of them I have the same name and email address (e.g. an NNTP and a POP3 account). The default account is POP3, and that's the account I expect to reply from when I press Reply viewing a message in my Local Folders. However, when I Reply, a different account (albeit with the same name and address) gets selected. This is significant since different account may have different SMTP servers, or it might just be an NNTP account, in which case I get a "Newsgroup" box to fill.

Note that when I just compose a message, this doesn't happen.

This started occurring about... a year ago or so? not entirely sure. Definitely had this with v78.* I'm pretty sure it wasn't like this with v68, although I should probably double-check.

Version: Thunderbird 93 → 78

Does this happen with version 115?
