 Thanks in advance,

 It doesn't have rolls pers?, but it does have various kinds of hooks
 which can do what you want. Here is an example of what you mentioned
 above.

 send-hook . my_hdr From: user at domain # set the address for most messages
sen-_hook speakup my_hdr From: user+speakup at domain # the address from
#which you are subscribed.

It is a lot more complicated than this, but you can figure it out fairly
easily. This question is asked almost weekly on the mutt-users at mutt.org
mailing list so you can look in its archives for all the responses. Be
warned that that list is quite likely to tell you to RTFM, so you may
want to do so. Good luck and happy mutting.
