JUST SORTED THANKS TO APPLE CHAT SUPPORT

SOLUTION:

Open Mail. Select MAIL>> PREFERENCES >>

Highlight the problem icloud account

Click the "server settings" tab.

Make sure it shows the correct "outgoing Mail account" in dropdown list. (in my case xxxx@icloud.com )

IF it shows a different account (in my case yyyy@mailprovider.com), click the drop down menu and change it to the correct one.

Hopefully, like me, this will resolve the issue
