I can see where it would help if you didn't have some way to filter mail, but
mostly the Sender: header is correct.  The only times I have trouble with that
is when an email is sent directly to me, and not the list.

Also, just to note, I would like (hope, pray, etc.) that Subjects become more
descriptive of what's in the message.  Wading through 100's of "Question:" or
"ARGH! HELP ME" messages for something useful is difficult to say the least.
