MAIL - REPLY, Mail uses different email to send

Hi.

Racking my brain here. When I click reply in MAIL the from field gets filled with one of my other account emails. I want the from email address to be the same as the original address the other person used. I get the drop down window to decide which account to use. But MAIL always picks the same less used account to fill the field. I have looked and can't find the way to fix this.

I would appreciate any help here. Thanks.

I think this is the setting you want in Mail preferences.

That is what i would have thought too. I have this setting for the email I want. However, it does not work...

It's a bug, been around since Mountain Lion was launched.
