Whether Listserv adjusts the "From" line depends on what the "Send="
parameter is set to.  To the best of my knowledge it leaves the
"From:" line alone only if the list is moderated or self-moderated
with some form of "Send= Editor".

The "Resent-From:" is what Listserv uses to verify the address of the
editor and to know to respect the original "From:".  I don't know what
configuration got you the "Forwarded By:" header line, and I don't
know what Listserv would make of it.

I didn't show my Pegasus bounce test in this message but it also
inserted "Resent-" fields in the header.
