Hei hei,
I'm subscribed to lots of mailing lists, not all with the same mail address. I also have configured multiple from addresses in roundcube. What happens to me very often: I post to a list with the wrong from address so a moderator has to view my mail or it's lost. Is it possible in roundcube to switch the from address to a certain one related to the mailing list I'm replying to automatically?

If you created identity for each email address it should be selected accordingly. At least, there's a logic for this, but it depends on message headers and might be not perfect. There's also some plugin which does the same for addresses not included in identities, I don't remember its name.

True. At least in my case this logic doesn't work. I have to manually select the correct identity each time I post to the list.

I have an identity for each of these addresses and can confirm that if there's a logic, it does not work.

While it works for regular replies it probably doesn't for mailing list messages. The current code checks recipient headers (To and Cc) against sender identities but messages from mailing lists usually don't specify you explicitly as recipient. In this case we'd have to consider the Delivered-To: header as well and that's currently not done.

Right. There's actually a logic to get recipient from Return-Path (VERP), but this doesn't work for all mailing lists (it works e.g. with PEAR lists). So, we need Delivered-To support.

Please also note that a recipient address (literal string) may not necessarily match the configured identity address (literal string).
I reckon some users subscribe to lists using an equivalent of "vanmeeuwen+lists@kolabsys.com", and so stripping the recipient address extension to find the corresponding identity, to then re-introduce the recipient address extension as the envelope sender address may be worth considering as well.
