The downside is when I have to reach out to customer support re my account. I can only send emails from my main address.

With Thunderbird you can edit your email address before sending.

It used to be even more comfortable using the "virtual identity" extension its author gave up maintaining it after Thunderbird 68

Thunderbird can also automatically select the reply from address based on the original to address but afaict only for addresses you have configured and not for whole catch-all domainst - I guess that is something the extension allowed?

Sometimes I wonder if Mozilla don't realize of what their extension API redesigns are costing the world or if their just don't care...

Fastmail supports the ability to send outbound mail from the email address the mail was sent to that may be of interest to you.
