Exactly, the reply has to come from the address you used to subscribe,
NOT from the address where that secondary account ends into.

That is easy to solve if you´re using a modern SMTP email client like
Mozilla´s Thunderbird... just configure your secondary email account
as a new pop3 acount on the program, but leave the pop3 server empty
or with bogus info, but the smtp server with the right info (smtp
server and username), the result is that you end up with an account
setup on the program configured so that can it send email -using that
secondary email address- correctly, but cannot receive it (the email
ends up in your primary account anyway, you´re just configuring it on
TBird for outbound messages only).

For instance, I have a dozen different email addresses configured on
TBird as "outbound only" (smtp server correctly configured, pop3
server setup as 127.0.01 which never connects ;), while email
addressed to all those accounts ends up in my @gmail.com ...

Not sure if I made my point clear. It´s harder to explain it than to
do it.... :)
