gnus-posting-styles is only applied before you start to compose a
mail.  Any modification after that has no effect on the your mail.
Therefore, Gnus will not change the signature according to who you are
sending to.  Though `header' is documented, I don't think it is right.

Some packages are written for modifying your mail when sending.  But I
can not remember what they are.
