I generally do the same.
In my experience not doing so tends to cause problems for everybody else on
the list, and I consider it part of the duties of running a list and keeping
the peace on it. (It might take a day or two until I get around to making
a manual maintenance pass, if it's going to be longer than that, such as
when I'm on the road and just checking my e-mail every day or two, I'll
generally drop a note telling the person I'll take care of it when I return.)
I will also treat a note saying things like 'you guys all suck' as a
request to unsubscribe, and also put that address on the 'do not process
requests' list, though I don't put that address in my personal kill file,
because on occasion it turns out that the inappropriate message was forged.
