I want to have an entry in /usr/lib/aliases such that the alias name
will be placed in the From: line, so replies will go back to everyone
in the list.

On machine called "mymachine" in /usr/lib/aliases file:

list-name: user1@mach1, user2@mach2

Produce header with following From: line:

From: list-name@mymachine


Thanks.
