In a good (probably standalone) MUA.
In Fastmail's webmail system there's not much of that flexibility, however
in a specific folder's "Advanced Preferences" you can set the identity
which will be used when you compose a mail when that is the current folder.
So here, if I have my debian-users folder selected, then click on Compose
(which annoyingly needs me to scroll the folders list back to the top), the
new window will open with "From:" set appropriately.
I have to set the "To:" address manually, but in contacts I defined all my
mailing list to-addresses as "ML - list name" so typing just ML in the TO
field gives me a picking list of valid values.
