Hi,
Is there any way to configure Mailman such that, for an announcement-only type list, when a message is sent to the list, the To: shows the member's address, rather than the list address?
Some list software allows the ability to hide the list address itself, so that address is not advertised.
I couldn't find any configuration specific to that.

Hello, I'm looking also to hide the list address, my provider offers Mailman 2.1.37.
In Mailman 3 DOC shows several options. It says: "I want to change the configuration of the mailing list so that all messages are addressed directly to the recipient, and the mailing list name does not appear anywhere in the headers." https://wiki.list.org/DOC/How%20do%20I%20hide%20the%20fact%20that%20I%27m%20...
I dont find this options in Mailman 2.1.37. Can you give an advice, if its only possible in Mailman3? Thank you.

It seems not possible with Mailman 2.1.37.
Under Non-Digest-Option it has only: (nondigestable) (msg_header) (msg_footer) (scrub_nondigest) (regular_exclude_lists) (regular_exclude_ignore) (regular_include_lists)
Don't see, "full personalization" or "personalization".
I asked my provider too, and after several questions, because we had misunderstanding’s, answer was also not possible.

It is possible if your provider adds
OWNERS_CAN_ENABLE_PERSONALIZATION = Yes
to Mailman/mm_cfg.py. The fact they say it isn't possible means either they won't do that or they don't know how.
