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...
