I don't think you can hide the email address in this list.  Some list
software will rewrite the From: line so all email has the hosting site
as the "From:" email address.  Memberclicks, I know, does this.  I
don't know what the mailinglist software is for this list, but many do
not support this out of the box.  

There is a downside to rewriting the address. It makes backchannel
communication difficult.  In the other organization that I belong to
that uses memberclicks, if you want to respond off-list, you have to go
to the membership site, log in as a member, and look up the member you
want to contact to see what his or her email address is.  I don't know
if there's an accessible central registry of fedora mailinglist users
with addresses or not.

My solution for some forums is to have limited use addresses.  Since I
run my own server, I'll just set up a "widget_mailinglist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
" or whatever, and I'll use it until it gets spammy -- then delete the
account.  Frankly, that's the only reason I'd use a gmail address if I
didn't run my own server.  The address I use here,
"vendor@xxxxxxxxxxxxx" is the one I use for when I have to register at
some vendor website.  Eventually I'll move the things I care about to
another email address and delete it.
