Thank you for the quick answer.

So I can now add the custom headers I want to see in the mail via this
configuration option which is great, but this does not change the
behaviour of the email list which still shows the original sender where
I would prefer to see the name/email of the last person having
're-sent' (which seems to be different from Forwarding - BTW is this
'resending' new? limited to Apple mail?). 

I can't see a way of adding a custom column 'Resent-From' column which
would in any case only be partially satisfactory because of the extra
space needed. Am I missing something?
