An entry in the FAQ deals with internationalization in Sympa:
http://listes.cru.fr/sympa/fom-serve/cache/56.html

Sympa uses 2 distinct techniques for internationalization :

        1/ NLS catalogues, mainly for report translation in
          the mail robot. NLS catalogues are in XPG4 format
          (See http://hazmat.fms.indiana.edu/manpages/g/gencat.1.html)
          Entries of the catalogue contain %d or %s replaced when used
          with printf or sprintf in the program.

        2/ templates used for web pages and service messages such
           as welcome, bye, lists,...
           The templates format is fully explained in the documentation :

           Variables are noted in brakets []

What From field do you mean ? List ? Sympa ? Sender ?
