I think I have a solution, though far-fetched.
The properties of all non top level folders can be set in the properties of their top level folder, by checking "Apply to subfolders".
So, for all top level folder, I select Properties > Compose >
Default From: x at y.z, Apply to subfolder,
click OK.
*If the highlighted folder is not top level, after clicking Compose, the From field will be x at y.z and if I send, then the SMTP will block me (as spam). This reminds me to select the right account, then I just have to remove x at y.z and send again.
*If highlighted folder is top level (named by email address),
then From field is default account.
The default account can be selected in two ways from the Configuration > Edit accounts... window:
1-highlight and click the button "Set as default account",
2-highlight and click the button "Edit" then a window opens, check there "Set as default".
It occurs that 2- has no effect on the From field, I think it is buggy and anyway useless, since the first way exists.
Now to avoid any From field mistake when highlighted folder is top level, I create a dummy account and make it default.
If sent without filling properly the From field, there will be an error.
