LISTSERV won't suppress or alter the From: line; see
http://www.lsoft.com/manuals/lsv-faq.stm#5.14 for some information on
why.  You'd have to use an anonymous remailer (are there any of those
around any more?) or perhaps have the subscribers send mail to the
mailing list using a web form that creates and sends messages of the
form:

        From: generic@address
        To: listname@whatever
        Subject: the subject that the person filling out the form
                 typed in

        The body of the message that the person filling out the form
        typed in.

Other people on the mailing list might have better suggestions.

Thanks,
