Not silly! When you first send a new mail, you can use a Gnus group as a
posting-styles template, by moving point to the group you want to use,
and then hitting "C-u m" (or "C-u a") rather than just "m" or "a". The
new mail will be constructed as if you were replying to a mail received
in that group.

Personally I would prefer a prompt, but that's how it works. There are a
few packages (gnus-pers, and gnus-alias, that is apparently an extension
of gnus-pers (?)) that do this, but I haven't used them before.

Eric
