Hmm.. that could be tricky.  Listserv will probably complain vehemently if
it is handed a piece of mail that has the list address in the From: field,
as it will think it's a possible mailing loop.  You may be able to turn off
that one part of the 'Loopcheck=' and then use your mail software to
set the From: field to the listname.

Use 'Reply-to: list,respect' in the list header, and then use whatever software
you are posting the mail with to add a reply-to: address that points where
you want it to.
