Apple Mail sends Gmail from wrong Gmail

Hey there,

Today I tried setting up Apple Mail on my computer. I have a company work gmail account, and am able to receive emails to the Apple Mail. However, when I try to send emails out, they come from my personal gmail, which isn't even set up on Apple Mail. Any ideas for how to get emails to send from the write gmail address (the one that is actually set up in Apple Mail?)

Please let me know if you have any ideas!

Thanks.

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

Try Mail/Preferences/Accounts /Account Information. Select an account, then go to Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP). From the drop down menu select Edit SMPT server list. Then set up a server for each mail account so that is associated with the e-mail address. Then go to each account and set that server as the Outgoing Mail Server (SMPT). You can click Use only this server if desired.
