[Mailman-Users] Setting Sender Name

For my mailing list, I have it set so that the senders email address is 
masked with the list address.  So for example, I presume if you receive a 
digest of this list then it would come from mailman-users at python.org, not 
something like "Mailman Users" <mailman-users at python.org>.  Does that clear 
up my problem?
