For those who keep their work email account separate from their personal one, it's important to set your default email correctly, because it'll be the account that sends all your email by default.
If you do have multiple email accounts logged into your iPhone's Mail app, the app will automatically choose the one you enter first as the default.
If you'd like to change your default account to a different email, though, you can easily do so. Here's how you can change your default email on your iPhone.
How to change your default email address on an iPhone
1. Open your Settings app.
2. Scroll down and tap Mail.
In the Settings app, tap the "Mail" tab.
