This request comes up every month or so and as we've seen from long subjects, 
it's more of a waste of space than anything else. I rewrite the from line to 
ALWAYS contain the same text per list and you can sort on that. Additionally, 
any House of Fusion email will come from 64.118.74.230, 245, or 249 (usually 
249). White listing these IPs will always let it in. I don't allow normal mail 
to be posted through the mail server so only listmail will go out from here, 
reducing the worry of spam. 
A future feature, low down on my list is to allow each subscriber to decide if 
they want a prefix or not and have it added only for them. It'll get into the 
system eventually but at the moment I'm publishing a Fusion Authority Technical 
Journal, teaching, doing a ton of code and staffing. It's a GOOD time to know 
ColdFusion!
