I remember reading it and being baffled that it was a solution.

I run dozens of LISTSERV lists with hundreds of members on all kinds of
mail servers, including Yahoo, Gmail, etc, and there doesn't *appear* to
be any problem.
The From header contains the originator's address.
The Sender header contains the list address, per RFC2822 B'3.6.2 b The
"Sender:" field specifies the mailbox of the agent responsible for the
actual transmission of the message.b
Reply-To is set to one or the other according to whether the list is a
discussion list or an announcement list, but LISTSERV can also be set to
honor an originator's specific Reply-To.
But I don't know if this satisfies Yahoo's requirements. There may be
other factors at work in the list software used for xsl-list, like an
inability to use the Sender header. One nice feature is that xsl-list
preserves the originator's Organization header, which LISTSERV doesn't.
