That got the Mail-Followup-To header to read correctly. Incidentally, I
realised why my address was there along with the mailing list address:
because I need to use mutt's "subscribe" command rather than the "list"
command.
It still doesn't seem to have affected the Sender header though, which
persistently has this gandi.net reference. Reading through the exim docs,
it says the -f option can only be used properly by a "trusted user". I'll
try making myself one of those, but I'm not sure of the syntax.
Colon-separated, I think.
