One way to do that is in using  gnus-posting-styles

See for the gory details the info pages on that subject, since it
creates a whole new "poster-environment" within your gnus.  

The simplest way is to insert in .emacs.el or .gnus.el files
  ;;;  (setq user-mail-address "foo@bar.TLD") 

this changes the user-login-name@machine.tld envvar in from-headers.
