The approach I'm using has the advantage, that you never have to worry
if all the parameters are set correctly, as it just auto-adjusts.
If you choose a semi-static setup with posting styles (supposing that
would work), you'd sort of have to stick with that account for the
group. I can simply add the From: and get everything taken care of.
