You can remove this header (or others) by adding the line

                 del msg['news']

(the case of the header name is not important) to cron/gate_news so it 
becomes

                 if found_to:
                     del msg['X-Originally-To']
                     msg['X-Originally-To'] = msg['To']
                     del msg['To']
                 msg['To'] = mlist.GetListEmail()
                 del msg['news']
                 # Post the message to the locked list
