I have been meaning to mention this one for a while.  I have this happen 
all the time.

The easiest way to replicate it is for me to click on a mailto: URL 
somewhere.  MailMate will then generate a new message which is often, 
but not always, from the first account listed in my list of accounts.  
If I change the "From" address, it does NOT change the account through 
which it is sent.  I am typically reminded of this when I get an error 
from Apple about how I'm not permitted to send from some other domain 
via my iCloud account and it rejects the message.

So there does seem to be some sort of a disconnect between what the From 
address is exiting MailMate and the actual account used for SMTP.

It may well be this is somehow linked to what you've seen here.
