 You remembered correctly.  Ironically I happened to test that exact
 thing yesterday in response to private mail I received.  I believe the
 determining factor is the way the editor submits the mail to LISTSERV.
 That is, if the editor's mail system allow mail to be forwarded with
 the original mail headers intact, then you will get the behavior you
 want.  The "forward" command in Mail/MailBook handles the headers that
 way for instance.  It adds several "Resent-XXX:" header lines and
 leaves the original mail headers alone.  If your editor is using a
 "reply" command or a "forward" command that rewrites the mail headers,
 then the information may not be available to LISTSERV when the note
 is submitted for distribution.
