Does this happen to all messages from Mailman?

Mailman adds the Sender: and Errors-To: headers as one of the last
steps in processing the message, and the get added to the end of the
headers so there are three possibilities.

The unlikely possibility is some other mail handling process added
those headers after Mailman.

The likely possibility is the message from Mailman has Content-Type:
multipart/xxx (or possibly message/rfc822) and the

Content-class: urn:content-classes:message
Content-Type: multipart/alternative;
	boundary="----_=_NextPart_001_01C8F0D3.E3792D44"

headers are actually the headers of a sub-part that Eudora is not
properly rendering.

The third (really unlikely) possibility is that Mailman's scrubber (if
scrub_nondigest is Yes) or content filtering or addition of msg_header
or msg_footer has munged the MIME structure of the message.

What do all the headers (including part headers) of the entire raw
message look like?
