Here's how I solved it (but this solution won't suit everyone):

1. I bought a licence to a domain, jasonjgw.net.

2. I configured all of my other accounts to forward to [email protected].

3. I configured my MUA to use this as the outbound address for all mail and
also changed all mailing list subscriptions to use it.

For people who have separate "work" and "non-work" identities, it's still
possible to complete steps 1 and 2, then filter the messages as they arrive
with Procmail, Maildrop or similar. Finally, configure the MUA to use a
different outbound address depending on which folder is current (I think some
will let you do this based on headers of the message to which you're replying,
but folder-based address selection is still convenient for writing new
messages that aren't replying to incoming mail). This arrangement generalizes
in the obvious way to any number of distinct identities with distinct e-mail
addresses.
