We just changed from Majordomo to Mailman.
We use listserv for email announcements to members.
We need to be able to send messages from specific users.
We used to change the from header when we accepted messages in moderated lists.
Is there a way to do this with Mailman?
Scenario:
Joe the CEO wants a message to go to all the members of our organization. His secretary creates the message and sends it to the list. She is also the moderator of the list. In Majordomo she would reply to the moderate email with the moderator password in the header and change the From: header to the Joe CEO of company.
Is there a way to do a similar thing with Mailman?
Setting the from address to the Listserv name isn't an option.
Thanks, Jeremy

Wouldn't the obvious answer be to configure her mail program to send mail as the CEO in the first place ? This would work for not only MailMan, but any mailing list program, and in fact mail to individuals as well. :-)
