Would removing Jaroslaw's email address would have changed the
'spam' ruling? We don't know that without further measurements.

That could be a hack like this (in Postfix or Majordomo):
- In Postfix, trigger on listmanager envelope address info
- Munge From: (combining original From: and listmanager envelope address info).
- Munge Reply-To: (using info from original From:).
- Strip DKIM, as the info would be invalid anyway.

Switching list manager would be the better long-term option, but a
hack could be useful to address some individual cases in the short
term.
