Yes. This is reproducible with nnselect.

But step (3) has misleading information. It is not picking from
user-mail-address. It is picking from gnus-posting-style,

(setq gnus-posting-styles
      '((".*"
         (name "Pankaj Jangid")
         (address "pankaj <at> xyz.invalid"))
	("nnimap\\+j4d:.*"
         (address "p4j <at> j4d.net"))))

When I create an nnselect group by doing C-u G G on nnimap+j4d:INBOX
group, it should actually pick the address defined for group
(j4d:.*). But it is picking the first one, defined for (.*).
