This is the primary reason I use the fastmail app instead of mail.app, because it uses the incoming email address as the reply address.

  I don't think this feature is present in any third party mail app (and frankly mailbox is not going to release an app with this feature) and honestly that would be weird to manage as in how do you know gmail.com is not the user's own domain but some-other.tld is. But Fastmail does know this as their app is not a common third party app. Lack of this feature makes full use of catch-all very unintuitive.

    On mac, that feature is actually available in MailMate, which remains the best in class email client I’m aware of. It’s the only one with that feature though.

    This features (to reply using the alias the email was sent to) was available on AquaMail Android (not free) years ago, though you had to configure it which was painful if you changed phones a lot.

    Thunderbird can do this with some configuration for replying to emails - set the pattern of the "Reply from this identity when delivery headers match" value of Account Settings. It's not as good as the addon Virtual Identity used to be, but it works for me 85% of the time (see https://github.com/absorb-it/Virtual-Identity/issues/22#issuecomment-712382568 https://github.com/absorb-it/Virtual-Identity/issues/22#issu...). For new messages you still need an extension like Identity Chooser or to manually edit the from header before sending.
