I'm running Mail.app on Panther, and I do not have this issue. I  
subscribe to a number of mailing lists under different accounts, and  
when I reply it automatically selects the account it was sent to.

The signature file, on the other hand, remains the default. That, and  
the inability to unsubscribe to IMAP mailboxes, are my only two  
complaints with Mail.app.

P.S. When you set up your accounts, make sure that your e-mail address  
reflects the e-mail use used to subscribe to the list. In other words,  
if bubba AT mycompany.com is aliased to zeke AT mycompany.com, be sure that  
both e-mail addresses are listed on the address line in your account  
set up (separated by spaces). Mail.app has to be able to relate the  
e-mail from the list to an account.
