Indeed - but replying from an arbitrary address is one big downside of G Suite’s implementation. In FastMail you can add <star>[0]@example.com as an identity. Selecting this when composing an email allows you to edit the localpart entirely. Similarly, when replying to an email sent to your catch-all and you have an <star>@ identity for the hostname FastMail will automatically set your from address for you.
In Gmail (with G Suite) one has to manually add every identity they may wish to reply from - there’s no <star>@ option. Additionally, it’s impossible to hide your real email address/Google Account address. It’ll always be disclosed in the email headers unlike FastMail.
I’d love if G Suite would make such a workflow easier..
[0] escape characters don’t seem to work here, <star> refers to what’d you think it does

I didn't know that, but it's fantastic news! I was doing things the awkward "gmail" way.
Speaking of which, do you know of any mail client (on iOS or Mac) that supports this? I am using the web interface for replying on most emails because of exactly this feature
