While I'm asking, what about the From field? I have set the Reply-to field (which doesn't accept a name, btw -- I'd like it to be John Doe <address@concealed> but Sympa only accepts the email address). But what I'd really like to do is re-write the From field. This is a newsletter-type situation.
For example, moderator address@concealed (his ISP) sends a message to his newsletter list, and it gets distributed as being From address@concealed. That way, any newsletter responses go to that address and can be easily separated from other mail.

I created a new list and discovered the Anonymous Sender setting, which takes care of the problem. Great! However, the original list I was trying to do this with does not have that option! I suspect this has to do with how I created the list... but, is there some way I can convert the existing list so that it has that option? I need it! (And I'd rather not have to create everything from the beginning again.)
