Addenda:  I set up a new list on the same host with ftg at roadrunner.com
as the owner and as a subscriber, and sent a post from
ftg at roadrunner.com to the list.

When ftg at roadrunner.com received the copy of the post, the headers were:

The interesting thing is that the "frank.griffin at selectbs.com" address,
while the administrator address for the mailman server which previously
owned all of the transported lists on the original host, doesn't figure
*anywhere* in the definition of the ftgtest list on the new host.  The
ftgtest list has a null description, which is why its references here
aren't of the form "xxxxx<frank.griffin at selectbs.com>" as in the
previous example.
