I have no idea what you expect, but LISTSERV will decode any encoded mail
you send to the LISTSERV address.

No.

Yes, but the default is full headers. *** BY DEFINITION *** the short
headers are for people without a sophisticated mail interface. If they
have a mail program that can hide selected fields, they should not use
short headers. I don't know of any MIME program that doesn't have an
option to hide "Received:" lines and the like, although there probably
are some (and they should be fixed).
