I have 3 email accounts that I use within Thunderbird. The majority of the email is sent and received from one account. This account is set as the default account. However, whenever I forward an email is defaults to one of the lesser used email addresses. How can I change this so it defaults to the primary email address? Thanks for your help.

There are a number of add-ons that provide options for selecting the account or identity from which messages are sent, but here is one that is possibly appropriate for the situation you describe:
