If i understand you correctly, you want the envelope-from
to be the same as the list adress? This wont work as the
envelope-from has to be different so that mailman can
distinguish bounces from regular mails. Also this should
never be a problem as the only place where people see
the envelope-from is in the headers and unless you have
a broken mail client (outlook comes to mind), you'll never
see this field.
