1742379 - Incorrect outgoing email address selected

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1737637

(Thunderbird :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

[Bob]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/94.0.4606.81 Safari/537.36 OPR/80.0.4170.63

Steps to reproduce:

I manage a separate domain for my wife's business in my Thunderbird client. When I received an email for her business (a completed contact form) I would click on the email address in the email and the reply would come from her business account. For example, before the update, I would receive an email to '[e-mail]' and I would click on the email address in the body of the received email and this would begin to compose a message FROM her address. I would reply automatically from [e-mail].

Actual results:

Now however, when my wife's business receives an email with an email address in the body, and I click on the email address to compose a rely, the reply email address is set from my main account. This is a completely different business with a different email address.

Expected results:

This wasn't the case until recently. Before the last major update I would click on the email address provided in an email to '[e-mail]' and the reply would come from the '[e-mail]' that the original email was sent to. Now, when I try to reply, my sender address '@husbandsbusiness.com'. I'm checking carefully now and changing the sender address manually with the drop down each time now but I'm going to make a mistake soon!
