I have three mail accounts on Thunderbird. When i click the link in my browser (Edge) to send a page link by e-mail, it takes me to Thunderbird, but not to the mailbox I usually want replied to. How do I change this?

The account that's picked is at the top of my mailbox window, so I presume I can make the desired change by moving my preferred account to the top--but how do i do this?

I'm running Win 10 21H1 and Thunderbird 91.5.0.
