It's probably historical - I've used variants of this code for many
years.

At one point the code in the send hook would observe an existing From
address (so you can add one by hand to override the hook), but I never
found myself using that and so removed it.

What is the reason for the explicit dme:notmuch-message-setup-hook, given that
dme:notmuch-message-send-hook replaces the "From:" header by its own?

ciao, lele.

The way that I do this is shown here:
http://dme.org/data/notmuch/notmuch-sender.el

I always remove the initial “From” generated by notmuch and choose one
when I hit “send”. In some cases the choice is automatic, but otherwise
there is a prompt.

Hi all,

I'd like to automatically force a particular sender when replying to a message
belonging to a mailing list I'm subscribed.

I'm using the GNU/Emacs MUA, and looking around I found the tip at
https://notmuchmail.org/emacstips/#index3h2, but I fail to see how to
recognize the "destination" address, in other words how to determine that "I'm
replying to a message that belongs to /that/ ML" within the advice, to replace
the sender only in that case.

Thanks in advance for any hint,
ciao, lele.
