At the top of the message include these headers as well
as the Approved header (as seen below):
>Approved: <password>
>From: User Name <user@user.com>
>To: listname@domain.com
>Subject: Subject of Message
This will set those headers to the fields shown instead of
using the headers from the incoming message. I think that'll
do it!
