We've been seeing some particularly pernicious spammers

Google.
To do that I need to find the original message headers. By the time
the message gets to the archive, or to the mailing list recipients,
all the Received: headers seem to have been deleted, leaving only the
ones from my list server outwards.
Only minimal information from headers is in the hyperkitty archive, but
the headers should be in the delivered email and in the message archived
by the prototype archiver if enabled (Mailman's
var/archives/prototype/<list_address>/new/)
For example, in the list message I'm replying to I see these headers
from your server
DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; q=dns/txt; c=relaxed/relaxed;
d=chubb.wattle.id.au; s=2; h=Subject:To:From:Date:References:Reply-To;

I don't know why you are not seeing similar headers in your list mail.
Perhaps the spammers are posting via HyperKitty.
Is there a way to access the original incoming emai, before DMARC
mitigation etc., has changed the headers?
If you can arrange via list settings or header filters for the message
to be held for moderation, you can see the raw held message in Postorius
or in Mailman's var/messages/ directory.
