I use the following code to check the "To" header.  After changing
(message-fetch-field "to") to (message-fetch-field "envelope-to") it
might do what you want.

You also need to set `rs-message-to-from-addresses' or
`gnus-ignored-from-addresses'.

or

in `gnus-posting-styles', the address in the From header is taken
from the To header of the article you are replying to.")
