Which version of notmuch are you using? gnus-alias is working fine for me with notmuch 0.17 and emacs-version "GNU Emacs 24.4.50.2 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.8.6) of 2014-04-04 on wani04" Cheers, mwh

I need this feature, too. There is some support for the same
functionality built into notmuch. The big problem for me is that
.notmuch-config does not support wildcards (e.g., *@mydomain.com or
user-*@mydomain.com). Compounding this issue is that, other than
notmuch reply's internals, notmuch pretty much suppresses the
Delivered-To header, which is crucial for knowing in a non-heuristic way
where an email was actually delivered to. I want to compute my From:
header based on the Delivered-To, so I created a
mail-delivered-to-reply-from alist that maps one to the other.
It's pretty horrifying what I had to do to get this to work, but it
looks something like the following. (Apologies for any mistakes, I had
to strip out additional complexity I have for other things in there, so
it's not verbatim the code that I'm using, but it's pretty close.)
If someone knows a better way of doing this with stock notmuch, please
let me know. I know it's simpler to fix notmuch-reply, but I really
don't want to start depending on a custom-forked version on the notmuch
binary, as I read my mail from multiple operating systems and I'm sure
I'd forget to update one of them.

gnus-alias integration bug
gnus-alias allows you to set your identity based on the headers in the
message you are replying. This is an essential feature in a mail client
for me, I want to automatically reply as the person an email was sent to
for certain addresses. This does not work in notmuch. gnus sets the
variable message-reply-buffer when it sets up a message, which
gnus-alias uses to go grab headers. It creates a buffer named
*gnus article copy* which contains all the headers and the message body. It
seems notmuch does not set this
variable when it sets up a reply.
Here is an example of a rule needed to do this.
