Using Thunderbird 45.8.0. I have two email accounts, let us call them work@gmail.com
and play@gmail.com
. Say I have two contacts:
The Boss
Poker Friend
If I have the play@gmail.com
account selected in the left-hand pane and start writing a new email to The Boss
, the play@gmail.com
account is selected and I must change the account to work@gmail.com
before sending the email. This is an accident waiting to happen.
Ideally Thunderbird would switch to work@gmail.com
when I selected myfirst contact (The Boss
).
Is it possible to assign a default account to contacts?
Looking through all the Address Book options I cannot see a way to do this. This gets tricky for multiple users, but the software would only have to switch account for the first contact added (or maybe the option would be to switch, if required, as each new contact is added) to reduce most accidents.
