You can use gnus-alias for this.  Put

(autoload 'gnus-alias-determine-identity "gnus-alias" "" t)
(add-hook 'message-setup-hook 'gnus-alias-determine-identity)

in .emacs and then M-x customize-group gnus-alias.  I would be more
helpful but I no longer need this functionality and have forgotten how
it works :)
