Hi Barry, Success! I've followed your advice, and indeed, my alias appears straight away in the "from" field. In fact, it was immediately chosen when I tried to reply to the subscription acknowledgement message I had tested on yesterday. I had no idea one had to add aliases in in the account info part of the preferences for the particular account.
