I'm going to assume that you want this functionality for mailing lists. It's 
pretty easy to configure:

- Select the folder in question
- Select Folder from the menu
- Select Mailing List Management
- Click the Detect Automatically button
- Stick with the defaults (or play around with the different settings)
- Click OK

Now the folder will be associated with a mailing list and by right-clicking on 
the folder you will see an option called 'New Message to Mailing List' and a 
hot key. Pressing the hot key will bring up a composer window with the to 
field filled out with the mailing list address.

You may have to change the hot key combination to get it to something you 
like. To do that, go into Settings > Configure Shortcuts from within Kontact.
