 I don't think Hypermail has anything that does that.
 You can probably use the "show_headers" option to have it display the
header line that has the author's name. But that would be in addition to
the From line, and wouldn't change what the index files are showing.

 If someone does want to add a feature to replace the From name, I suspect
it would be better to implement it as a seperate script rather than put
that feature into the Hypermail executable.
