I'm not sure what setting that is. I've tried hitting the "tap to edit" thingy to edit the command it head from "open Offie" to "open Authy" several times, and it doesn't seem to really help much. It's not that much of a problem on my phone or iPad, because I can just ask it to open Authenticator (Microsoft's authentication app). When I set up TOTP for a site, I scan the QR code in both.

Yea “tap to edit” is what I meant. But who knows how many past (mis)recognitions vs manual edits it takes to reform Siri. I’d try to do it each time, hopefully won’t take too long to get it.

I use fastmail with mail.app and haven’t had this issue, with neither ios or macos

Do you have multiple aliases set up in the Mail settings? And the Mail.app sends emails correctly from the one you select?

My personal anecdata is that yes, it does help
