Yes. I'm in this same situation. The relevant lines from my .muttrc look
like this:
set alternates="([EMAIL PROTECTED]|[EMAIL PROTECTED]|[EMAIL PROTECTED]|ac
[EMAIL PROTECTED]|[EMAIL PROTECTED])"
set reverse_realname="no"
set reverse_name="yes"
The first variable, "alternates," is a regular expression that matches
any of the e-mail addresses that should be considered as belonging to
me. In your case, you could make the regex (untested):
jburke(-[a-z]+)?@alt255.com
or something like that.
Then set reverse_name, and it should automatically put the correct
address in the "from" field of the reply.
