I tried "hacking" mailman a bit... Here's the relevant lines in
SMTPDirect.py :
del msg['sender']
del msg['errors-to']
msg['Sender'] = envsender
msg['Errors-To'] = envsender
At least, that's all I can find. Nothing seems to happen when I comment
out some or all of these lines. Am I doing something wrong? Do I have
to restart mailman for these changes to work?
Thanks for you help, Jim.

Setting ALLOW_OPEN_SUBSCRIBE allows you to set the subscribe_policy to
'None'. After you configure your list, you could set it back to No.
(Or you could use bin/withlist to set your list's m.subscribe_policy=0
directly.)
I should warn again that this setting seems like a bad idea in an era
of malicious users. If the list is as "closed" as you described, I
would think it much better to set the subscription policy as tight as
possible (to require 'approval', so that nobody joins the list
"unexpectedly") and then always have the list manager do the
subscription and unsubscription through the administrative interface.

You could hack Mailman/Handlers/SMTPDirect.py, but it may be easier to
have your MTA strip it. (Think carefully before doing so, since some
elderly MTAs might still honor that header. If you are sure none are
in the path between you and your SMS gateway, you should be safe.)
