It doesn't seem to, for two reasons:
1) At least as majordomo is configured for my list, I am not getting an
approval "template". Even if it did,
2) The message as stripped by majordomo contains no MIME
version no., content-type, or content-transfer-encoding lines to inform
the subscriber's MUA that it should be converted back, once approved.
After considerable experimentation, I have been able to get the list to
work as it should, but only by sending the Approval line in the body of
the text as submitted, rather than in a two-step approval process. (I had
previously used the two-step process to check appearance before sending
the message to list subscribers.)
I observe that if a blank line after the approval line is OMITTED, the
entire message is thrown into QP-visible characters, the Subject line is
omitted, and the "outgoing" mail address appears in the "To" field.
