Some email lists/newsletters Bcc: all recipients, so that your email address does not appear in the To: or Cc: field. In this case, the "copy-to-address-to-from-if-it-is-us" setting doesn't work.

A possible workaround might be to add a similar option that matches on Delivered-To: headers, applies a sed(1)-style transform, and copies the result to the From: field.

Eduardo: any interest in adding such a feature?

Is there any other header besides Delivered-To that has the information you need? My information is that this header is defined in an experimental RFC from about 3 years ago, but I do not find it in the headers of the message I am replying to, so it has not been widely adopted yet.

The main problem we are going to have is that Alpine's interface does not lend itself to a high degree of configuration, so you would have to hard-code this, so let's see what it takes. I just do not know if it is unreasonable to ask a person to use roles in this case.
