Thanks to rex [mailto:[log in to unmask]]. Being new to the list I never even
thought to look in the archives. Sorry everyone for bringing up an old topic
again.

I've posted about how to use Eudora to insert the required "resent-*"
lines several times.

 There is a better way: create a "listmgr" persona in Eudora. Instead
 of adding
 ExtraHeaders=Resent-From: [log in to unmask]
 below [Settings] in eudora.ini, add it below [Persona-listmgr]. When
 a message from LISTSERV comes in for approval, use <shift-redirect>
 and select the "listmgr" personality. Send the (possibly) edited
 message to the list. This works just as the above does, but it avoids
 the problem of having to either use two versions of Eudora, or having
 every message sent out with a "Resent-From:" line. Only those messages
 redirected with the "listmgr" personality will have the line inserted.

 Sorry I didn't see this the first time, but I don't use Eudora...
