As someone who has maintained a couple of WG mailing lists
for several years, I'd object to the imposition of such a
requirement.  The amount of spam, especially *large* (megabyte
or more) viral messages, directed at WG mailing lists makes
keeping all the trash a highly unattractive proposition.

(Much of the viral spam I see bears the forged addresses
of legitimate subscribers, so I have to resort to other
mechanisms to keep the lists clean.)
