Reading "man muttrc" reply-hook discussion might help you. It explains
the usage:
reply-hook [!]pattern command
When replying to a message matching pattern, command is executed.
When multiple reply-hooks match, they are executed in the order in
which they occur in the configuration file, but all reply-hooks are
matched and executed before send-hooks, regardless of their order
in the configuration file.
Note that *all* matching reply hooks are "matched and executed before
send-hooks, reguardless ...", and you can have *only* one From: address.
I would guess that in your case the From: address selection is somewhat
arbitrary from the conditions you set and settless to your default.
I would suggest using "send-hook", and set a default, to accomplish your
desires. Further reading of the mutt and muttrc man pages will help.
