Yes, the message then carries the address of the author.  I agree that it's
a much better configuration!  I used to have the configuration you describe
and found it annoying.
 
To include the editor line, the configuration is:
 
*  Send= Editor,Hold
*  Editor= [log in to unmask]
 
I then get a cheerful little "request for approval ######" message from
listserv when people post, and forward it back to listserv with no subject,
delete everything but the number and put "OK " in front of the number and
send it.  Easy.
