FWIW, if more MUAs (mail user agents) were updated to become compliant
with RFC 2369 section 3.4 (as is my mailer, mutt, also Thunderbird,
KMail, many others), and thus heed the List-Post header, that would no
longer happen.  I refer to this SMTP header in every post:

List-Post: <mailto:license-discuss@opensource.org>

Gradually, news of this two-decade old Internet standard is making its
way out to mailer authors.  Perhaps via Pony Express.  ;->
