End users (us!) will see messages from the list with a From: that says something along the lines of "From: John R. Hogerhuis via m100 <[email protected]>" which will show to the end user (depending on their MUA / mail reader software) as "From: John R. Hogerhuis via m100" potentially with or without the <m100@...> bit. Many modern clients (iOS Mail, Outlook, many of the webmail clients I've seen) will show just the front bit and require a click to reveal the second bit, which will no longer be the submitter's email address. This will work for the majority use case: mail traffic will show up in subscriber's inboxes, the submitter's name will be visible (if slightly different), and hitting the Reply button will send a reply to the list. The submitter's email address will not (as far I can tell from the docs) be visible, making it just a little more friction to take a discussion off-list since you can't copy the email address off as easily. Happy to continue the discussion or implementation details off-list. I'm sure most of us don't need to read more of my strong opinions on running mail infrastructure.
