that's necessary.  the problem is that some isps have "registered"
every smtp server that is allowed to originate email  from their
domain.   when you send through a mailing list the originating
server isn't your server but the mailing list manager's server.
many, but not all, servers upon receiving it will bounce it as
not coming from one of the author's domain's allowed server.
what mailman does {and Likely other mailing list managers}
is replace all of the apparent origination info with "from
the mailing list"  generally {dunno on this list} mailman will
put the author's original email address in as a "cc:"
