[Mailman-Users] Replacing the To:/Cc: fields?

There was a functionality in majordomo that I've been missing
in mailman - the option to skip the To: and From: fields in the
mail that is sent to the list, and to replace them with a
standard To: header that only has the list's address in it.
I wonder whether it is at all possible to do this with mailman?
(Note: this is _not_ about setting the Reply-to field!)
In my majordomo installation, it went like this:
Instead of a generic resend script, each list would have its
own tailored resend script, resend.listname
with these modifications:
# skip these special headers
(...)
|| (/^to:/i)
|| (/^cc:/i)
(...)
# add new header fields
print OUT "To: Test Mailing List <listname\@example.net>\n";
This made it possible to curb crossposting to other lists and
individuals, and to have 'cleaner' headers, from which the
list as a recipient was immediately clear.
But mailman seems to keep any and all recipients as long as
there aren't more than are specified in max_num_recipients.
I've waded through documentation, but found no leads for this.
