See the manual about send-hook and reply-hook
Example:
reply-hook '~t myfirst.ad' my_hdr 'From: xxxxxxx
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; set signature="sh ~/bin/msig_xxx|"'
send-hook '~t
([EMAIL PROTECTED]|[EMAIL PROTECTED]|friend3.rr)'\
'my_hdr From: myname <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>;\
set signature="sh ~/bin/msig_ccc|"'

fetchmail, procmail, postfix, mailfilter, amavis, clamav, etc..
