I'm don't fully understand the headers in the spool/input/*H files or shown by
eximon. In this particular case, I'd like to understand why a sender address
generated by Majordomo's "resend" script seems to have been rewritten... the
headers shown by eximon are:

Local sender: <majordom@???>
Recipients:
    matrox-users-outgoing@???


P Received: from majordom by nottingham.ac.uk with local (Exim 1.58 #10)

The Sender field prefixed by "*" is what Majordomo generated (it should be
fully-qualified). Why is there another, prefixed by S? The sender should be
the list-owner, who needs to know about delivery failures for addresses in
their list, not majordom (which comes to me).

Can I get exim to fully-qualify a Sender address with ${primary_hostname} ?
