If I understand correctly, you should take a look to
message-alternative-emails that provides exactly that : when replying to
a message where the To: is in the alternatives, that address is
automagicaly used for the From: of the reply. Otherwise it uses the
styles or the user-mail-address.

Its value should be a regexp, so regexp-opt could be useful to build it.
Here is an example :

(setq message-alternative-emails 
      (regexp-opt (cons user-mail-address
                        '("first@domain.net"
                          "second.value@other.fr"
                          "another@value.net"
                                 ))))
HTH.
