Well, the original poster did not provide any sample of mail forwarded by this method but I got the impression that the forwarding described works by generating BSMTP fields to effect the forwarding and leaving the original body intact, or something similar, such that the 'From:' field still pointed to the editor and there was no 'Resent-From:'. The fact that this can be done and actually causes LISTSERV to believe the note came from the editor is a known design problem of this network, which unfortunately we will probably never be able to fix. If there is a 'Resent-From:' field, LISTSERV will use it as the actual origin so this should be no problem. If there is a 'Sender:' field pointing to the forwarder and a 'From:' field pointing to the editor, the posting will be accepted (so that you can have a hierarchical list setup with a common editor), but it would be very strange for a forwarding package to do that.
