Actually, no, I don't see. If you get a lot of mail that should have gone to a list instead, it seems like it'd be better to simply reply to it with some boilerplate that redirected them to the appropriate list. Letting it frustrate you, and then letting that frustration affect how you reply to mail that was correctly sent to a list, seems like a less than optimum approach.
