Simply set point on the group whose posting style you want to use, and
then hit `C-u m' instead of only `m'. Or hit `C-u 1 m', and Gnus will
query you for the group whose posting style you want to use.

This is for a mailing list, not a newsgroup. I get the mails through my
regular IMAP mail, and when replying the From address is changed OK,
thanks to the following rule in my gnus-posting-styles
((header "to" ".*visit-users.*") (address "angel.....@gmail.com"))
So I don't think your idea would work? In any case, even for a post to a
newsgroup, I don't seem go get the headers modified if I use C-u m or
C-u 1 m
Thanks for your help,

I read lists in IMAP, with them pre-filtered into IMAP folders. So they
are also 'groups' in gnus.

Ah, OK, I see. With a rule like
(".*VisIt" (address "angel.......@gmail.com"))
then C-u 1 m or C-u m work as explained, but I was hoping for a way of
firing this rule when I start a new message (command 'm') from anywhere
in my group buffer, after completion of the line To: includes something
like .*visit-users.* (or just starting a mail from within BBDB (command
'm'), which I regularly use for composing mails).
Any ideas?
Thanks,

I have modified gnus-posting-styles so that I will use an alternative
mail address when replying to a certain mailing list and it works fine,
but I would like that when I compose a new mail to that list the From
header is also "automagically" modified to that alternative mail
address. I didn't find anything obvious in the gnus-posting-styles
section in the manual (or surroundings). Is there an easy way to
acomplish that?
You forgot to include the content of gnus-posting-styles :-)
Are you using "a" from the group buffer, or explicitly creating a mail
message?

When replying, there should be some header indicating whom are
you replying, or the Subject may contain "Re:". Without that the
message is probable a new one.
Hope it helps.

Sorry, i'm very old-fashion. I just do re-type on screen.
After delete the address with back-space key. Though, it is a style.

Two possibilities I'm aware of: develop a function for message-send-hook that modifies (more likely replaces) the From address based the To; or decide to only generate messages to that list from within a group you've set up for it. In that case I believe you can use the posting-style parameter to set up the From address however you like.
