AFAICS it is not possible to set buffer-local variables from
`gnus-posting-styles' but I would need buffer-local
`user-mail-addresses' since I use several addresses.

Even if this would be possible I don't think this would help since I use
`message-send-mail-function' value: `gnus-agent-send-mail'. If I am
unplugged mail is stored in nndraft:queue and buffer-local settings
would also lost, wouldn't they?

I've two ideas:

· Why does smtpmail use mail-envelope-from but don't try to determine
  mail-from from :-) the mail?

· Is there a way to make buffer-local variables when the queue is send?

Why of course not?

I use:

((".*"
  (name "Micha Wiedenmann")
  (address "foo@foo.de"))
 ((my-message-news-reply-p)
  (address "bar@bar.de")))
