Probably, indeed.  But what happens if that header was already "taken" in
the process that brought the message to mailman for distribution to the
list?

As I noted in my previous response, I believe that the correct field (if Mailman were to add a "Sender:" header) to add would be "Resent-Sender". Please see RFC 2822, section 3.6.6. The "Resent-Sender" field may be multivalued, so this isn't a problem. However, Mailman should not be modifying the Sender: field at all.

"Original-Sender" is a header used when gatewaying X.400 messages into RFC 822 messages for use in JNT mail networks. It would not be appropriate for use here.
