Yep.  Lots of header's in them thar emails.

The Sender header is set to bounces so the software can automatically
detect bouncing addresses and after a while (I think 30 messages) set
them to stop getting emails.  This takes a bunch of work off my plate
keeping the list clean of non-functioning email addresses.

At least my prefered email reader (mh-rmail inside emacs) appears to
grab the From: header (instead of the From header) to present to me.
Of course, I can sort of file based on any of the various headers.

As well, you will notice that there are now a raft of List-* headers
attached to the emails, in case you ever forget how to unsubscribe,
want to help someone else subscribe, look at the archives, etc.
