Thanks for all the explanations (including several off list) of the
Mailman end of this; but that was not the problem. I have done some
testing and have confirmed a Eudora bug on this. If the subject line ends
in a period (.) Eudora trashes the headers, deleting the subject, stripping
the "real name" out of the from header, and messing with the destination
header(s). If I add a white space after the period everything is fine.
It's scary the weird and unexpected things code can do.
