Since my upgrade to El Captian a few days ago, when I do a send again, Mail uses the wrong account/ email to send from. It's a huge nuisance as important business emails may then be sent from the wrong email address is I don't catch it and manually change.

I did check pref, compose, send new message from... but this is resend, before it would also resend from my main account, which I use 99%.

But now its doing right click resends from those other non business accounts I rarely use. thanks!

PS also after el captian, with IMAP, it seems much slower, I read it was supposed to be faster, now folder disspear more. the LOADING comes up more... really slower, killer.

I have had this before. Check Mail preferences. Check the outgoing mail SMTP server (outgoing mail server) and select the proper one. Delete it if necessary and/or edit it.

Delete all accounts from mail and add them again one by one. Assuming you have IMAP, it should all be ok (just time consuming perhaps to refetch all of the emails again).
