I apologies for wasting all your time. After further investigating it
was a programming error. The program that was sending the email to the
list was putting a coma to separate last and first names. Outlook was
interpreting the comma as an email address separator. Right away they
blame the mail server!!

Thanks anyway, 

Rich

Rather than use "forward" (which is the same term used by user accounts 
that have their mail re-routed or copies sent to other address(es)), I 
would suggest saying:

         Person A sends an E-mail to an alias account
([EMAIL PROTECTED]),
         which gets sent to Person B, Person C, and Person D.

With an alias, the headers won't be modified at all.  So the E-mail that

Person A sent (with a "From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]" header) will still
have a 
"From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]" header when it is received by Persons B, C,
and D.

If Person A sends an E-mail directly to Person B (or C or D), does it
work 
properly?  I'm guessing this isn't an issue with aliases, but instead is
an 
Outlook issue.
