Account received from is different that account sent from
Please, I need help. Bear with me while I describe the problem.
Let's say I have two email accounts set up, user1 and user2. Each one has been set up for quite some time and both have worked as expected for years. If I send an email from user1 a copy of the message drops in the sent folder of user1 and the reply comes back to user1, and if I send an email from user2 a copy of the message drops in the sent folder of user2 and the reply comes back to user2. Not any longer.
Now, if I send an email from user1, a copy of the message drops in the sent folder of user1 and the copy clearly says it was sent from user1's email. However, the reply comes back to user2's email inbox. The source of the message clearly shows it was sent TO: user2, Delivered-To: user2, Received: from line says it is for <user2>.
This has been going on since the latter part of last year.

Do you have separate smtp servers for each account, and are the accounts pointing to the correct servers?
The Gmail server information was set years ago according to their instructions and have worked for years. I've made no changes to that information for any of my accounts, and this is the only account that exhibits this behavior.
MORE INFORMATION: I'm discovering when I go to Account Settings>Outgoing Server>Edit SMTP server, if I edit the user name under Security and Authentification then the edited name is copied into several but not all of the other accounts.

That proves Sfhowes' assumption. That perception appears when each account does not have a unique server.
I don't understand how that applies. Gmail accounts all use the same outgoing server information with the exception of the user name.
