new gmail address not available in the "From" drop down list

I have setup a new gmail account on my mac in apple mail. When I send an email, the new address is not available in the "From" drop down list of my mail accounts. How do I get it there?

I've seen various similar problems with the SMTP server settings on various accounts. I've never found a permanent solution. I usually just kept trying to change them. If it is an IMAP Gmail account with everything stored online, you could try removing the account and re-adding it.
