Mail -> Preferences -> Composing -> Send new messages from: <drop down list of your email addresses>

Automatically select which best account or you can select the one you wish to be the default.


When composing there is a From field and you can define the mailbox to send from.


In the Accounts settings there is a Server Settings tab for each account where you can define the outgoing mail account be sure to check that as well.
