Why when clicking on an email address I can only send emails from gmail?

[Arthur Zablocki]

After I click on an email address within the body of a message, so that I can send an email to that person/email address, I am being FORCED to us GMAIL account.
I have my business email also set up on the phone, but I cannot use my business email address, only one of my gmail accounts from the "FROM" section.

Please help, I've been desperately looking for answers as to how to get rid of gmail as my default sender of new messages.

regards
Arthur

Go to Settings/General/Application manager, find Gmail, open it, scroll down and tap the Clear defaults button.

The next time you click an email link you should be asked which email app to use. You can pick one for just this time, or you can tap "Always", which will set that one as the default. (And you can clear that in Application manager later if you change your mind.)
