What I'd like to know if is possible within mailman is the following:

Essentially, this would move the "umbrella" setting from a global to a
single address. This would solve about half the problem (the headers
would still need to be fixed, mainly the to: header).
No. This is not possible in current Mailman.
You might want to look at the "sibling lists" feature in Mailman 2.1.10
and up. You could add the -discuss list to the regular_include_lists
attribute of the -announce list. This would send a copy of any
-announce post to all the -announce members with delivery enabled plus
any delivery enabled regular members of the -discuss list who were not
regular members of the -announce list.
The potential issues that I see are:
A regular member of the -discuss list who is a digest member of the
-announce list will receive the individual message and also receive it
in the digest.
Typically, an announce-list is not digestable so this is not a worry.
Digest members of the -discuss list will not receive the message unless
they are also members of the -announce list.
I'd have to assume there's something internal that makes this necessary --
I'm curious as to how much tweaking it would take to fix (i.e. make it so
digest members receive the announcement, either in their digest or
separately).
