As I noted in my previous response, I believe that the correct field (if
Mailman were to add a "Sender:" header) to add would be "Resent-Sender".
Please see RFC 2822, section 3.6.6. The "Resent-Sender" field may be
multivalued, so this isn't a problem. However, Mailman should not be
modifying the Sender: field at all.
"Original-Sender" is a header used when gatewaying X.400 messages into
RFC 822 messages for use in JNT mail networks. It would not be
appropriate for use here.
