It also has the interesting side-effect of masking the email address of
the sender, which may or may not be a good thing. It's a bummer that
subscribers no longer have the option of sending a private email to
another subscriber, though, since now you don't know the email address
of that person (unless you knew it beforehand).

Is it possible to configure mailman to add a custom header for that?
(X-Original-Sender maybe?)
