My list (OES-L) has the following in its header:

   Send=private
   [log in to unmask] (this changes depending on the work load)

These settings allow us to put everyone on review intially and take
them off as they get used to the Topics. Right now I have about 25
out of almost 500 subscribers on Review. Most of the messages needing
editing have to do with incorrect Topic usage.

I just did one. When I approved the resent message and it showed up
on the List it looked like it came from the original poster and it
now contains these additional headers:

Approved-By:  [log in to unmask]
Comments:     Resent-From: [log in to unmask]
Comments:     Originally-From: "Pat Wolf" <[log in to unmask]>

But to the List (who don't bother to look at the extended headers) it
looks like it came from the original poster.

Isn't that what you are trying to accomplish?
