1) I'm almost certain Mailman doesn't set it; the MTAs somewhere along
the path are.  return-path doesn't appear in the mailman code in
any capitalization (except one comment).

2) read http://cr.yp.to/immhf/envelope.html; according to djb, it
*must* be set to ABC-admin; any other setting would be wrong.

3) order of headers can't matter to an email client; any such client
is *horribly* broken.

What email client are we talking about?
