An editor would like some control on the From: line.  His reader's want
to be able to tell mail is coming from the list.  The previous editor
had worked from UNIX and had some tools that posted under a "list"
userid.  The "real" From: line was simply the first line of the note
body.
 
We'd rather use the new OK mechanism for approval but with that
technique, the notes come from various list members and it's harder to
identify list mail just looking at the From: lines.
 
My answer is to have the reader's use filters in Eudora Pro since that
can look at other headers and direct the mail to various mailboxes.  Not
really a viable solution for the world.
 
Anyway to solve it on the server side other than Digests?
