With an IMAP server it is very easy too, with ThunderBird identities. There is 
a button "Identities…" at the lower right corner of the main account settings 
page. From there you can configure as many virtual identities as you need (one 
for each alias which routes mails to your account). When you compose a mail 
ThunderBird tries to guess the identity from which the mail will be sent or you 
have the choice to select one from the list. Each identity may have extra IMAP 
folders for SPAM, Sent, etc. which is pretty cool :-).

But for those who do not even know from which account they subscribed: Please 
display all header information for a line like this:

Return-Path: <users-return-XXXX-volker.holfeld=nicsys...@openoffice.apache.org>

You will see your mail address used when subscribing to the list (Sorry if that 
has been answered, but I did not follow the whole thread :-)…).
