My messages seem to carry a bunch of guff into this group from the
maillist.
All the guff in my From: line:
From: hput via "Announcements and discussions for GNUS, the GNU Emacs Usenet newsreader (in
English)" <info-gnus-english@gnu.org>
Thats enough bull puckey to sink a smallish battleship.
I used to know how to trim stuff fromm a from line but forgot it many
years ago.
What can I so that all but the actual address of that maillist is
gone?

You can thank spammers for that.
Many mailing lists do From: rewriting these days when the From:-domain
has DMARC set up, because otherwise emails sent out by the mailing list
fail SPF.
This can be avoided by adding a DKIM header, which can be non-trivial¹ -
e.g. you need control of DNS of the domain in your From:-address.

The munged From:-line is what the mailing list sends out - so all you
can achieve is that it looks different on your screen.
Best regards,
Adam
