Default account setting in Outlook 2010 does not work when composing new messages?

Hello,

I am currently using Outlook 2010 (not beta). I have two accounts, a google imap account and a pop3 account.  I have designated my IMAP account as my default account.  As I understand it, this means that when I create a new email, it should default to being sent from my IMAP account.  However, whenever I create a new email, it defaults to the account which I am currently viewing in Outlook.  In other words, if I am currently viewing the pop3 inbox, when I compose an email, it will default send from that account.  Conversely, when I compose an email while viewing the IMAP inbox, it will default send from that account. 

Any ideas as to what is going on?  This is rather frustrating because I only rarely send with my pop3 account--only when replying/forwarding email received with that account or other unique situations.  Is there a way to make Outlook be true to sending from the default account, without doing something drastic like disabling the secondary account?

Thanks in advance.

Rom
