Apple Mail changing my send from email address

I've recently changed my primary email address from the one I've used for years. Even though I select the new email address in the "From" section, and have made my new email address the default "Send From" account in Apple Mail settings, after I press send, Apple Mail is reverting the send from email address to my old email address. It is doing this on my MacBook and my iPhone.

How do I get Apple Mail to stop automatically changing the send from email address to my old one?

Change the associated account in(?) :

>System Settings>AppleID
Contacts.app> your card
Mail>Window>Previous Recipients remove old address if present
