This solution didn't work for me, but the following solution from about.com did work: Specify the Default Account in Mac OS X Mail. Select Mail Preferences. From the menu.
Setting Gmail as the Default Email Client on Windows 8 and 10. To make Windows use Gmail by default, you first set your browser of choice as the default email application. If Gmail is your primary email client, setting it up the website as the default one in various web browsers on your Mac is highly recommended so that all of your email links open on the Web and not in the stock Mail app.

For no.2, if I disable that option on specific account, then when I reply on that account, I expected that account should try to send the other account, but that was not. It tried to use it's own send server I'm the only one who has this problem? What I want is, sending all accounts' mail reply from the one account. Hey, I had the same problem, there was no checkbox for 'Use only this server'. In addition, when I compose a new email, there was no 'From' that I can choose to select. Lastly, I couldn't drag and drop an account that I want to make as default account.
I'm using OS El Capitan, and Mail v9.3. But, I managed to solve my problem, by going to Mail Preferences Accounts. I clicked on each account that I do not want to be default, and under the tab 'Account Information', I unchecked 'Enable this account'. This will inactivate the account. I repeated the above step for all accounts that I do not want to be default accounts. So the only account left active is the default account I want. Then I went back to each deactivated account, and re-activate them again by checking 'Enable this account'.
Then for some magical reason, the checkbox for 'Use only this server' appeared. And the 'From' in composing a new email also appeared.
And the composing new email auto selects my chosen default account as default. And, be clicking on the 'From', I can choose manually another account to send from in my composing new email. I have tried both of these again and again.
It has had no effect and I am finding it very difficult to keep my work for a charity separate from my activism which is very unhelpful. I checked today - a message I thought I had sent from my personal address (and which carried my personal email signature) was nevertheless sent from charity work address as default. This is a real problem as I also do not wish to share my personal email with my work contacts - so I can't just swap the defaults round.
I have set the option to use the From address I nominate but this doesn't stop it being labelled from another address. I have tried the drag and drop again and again and it doesn't respond. Do better please Or tell me where I'm going wrong Also the whole programme crashes and hangs on a regular basis. Apple Footer.

In the cloud-connected 21st century, Google is currently king. Chances are you’ve got Gmail for email and make use of Google Drive and its associated apps for storing files and working on the go. But while there are dedicated apps for accessing these features on your mobile, what about the desktop? Rather than tie up your web browser or make do with a third-party email client such as Thunderbird, Kiwi for Gmail Lite aims to provide you with a dedicated app that gives you access to your Gmail account, spanning mail, calendar and contacts.
A separate Kiwi for Gmail app can be through the App Store for $9.99 that not only allows you to connect up to six accounts at once, but also run G-Suite (Docs, Sheets and Slides) and Google Drive through the app too. Kiwi for Gmail Lite doesn’t try to reinvent the wheel – at first glance it’s little more than a wrapper for the web-based interface, so will be instantly familiar to those currently accessing Google services through their browser. That does it a disservice though, because Kiwi for Gmail basically integrates these services into your desktop, with separate windows for composing email and the ability to make Kiwi your default mail handler. Everything works slickly and as you’d expect – if you’re looking to access your Gmail account from outside your browser, then Kiwi for Gmail Lite is well worth taking for a road-test.
What's new in 2.0.15? - Updated underlying framework - Today View / Focus Filters - Fixed several bugs. WhatsApp Messenger is the world's most popular instant messaging app for smartphones. You can use it to send and receive text and voice messages, photos, videos, even call your friends in other countries, and because it uses your phone's internet connection it might not cost you anything at all (depending on whether you'll pay data charges).
It's easy to set up and use. There's no need to create and remember new account names or pins because it works with your phone number, and uses your regular address book to find and connect you with friends who use WhatsApp already. You can talk one-to-one or in group chats, and because you're always logged in there's no way to miss messages. Even if your phone is turned off, WhatsApp will save your messages and display them as soon as you're back online. There's plenty more (location sharing, contact exchange, message broadcasting) and the app is free for a year, currently $0.99/ year afterwards.
What's New in Version 2.18.111. It’s now easier to start group voice and video calls.
Just tap the call button in groups or select 'New group call' when starting a new call in the calls tab. Group calls support up to 4 participants.
