I tried to find a way to do this last year myself.  I never really got a
straight answer on it; but was able to deduce that majordomo does not
support this.  I came across a statement that basically said that to have
such a feature would require sending a unique email to each user on a list;
whereas the current system is designed to send the same email to multiple
recipients.  Changing majordomo to allow a unique message for each user
(whatever form that takes) would dramatically increase the resources
required to send the message out (especially for larger lists).

I have several email addresses on a mailing list that appear to be
forwarded to obsolete email addresses.  When the messages bounce, I have no
way to know what the original email address is.  I know it *should* be in
the "Received" headers, but it is not.
