List-Id or not, is there *ANY* MUA that supports those fields [that is, 
that gives you a usenet-news like interface where you can *clearly* see 
the distinction between "send this reply to the forum" and "send this 
reply to the author"??  I don't know of one, but I"m not up on the ins 
and outs of the latest MUAs.  I can *filter* on those fields just fine 
[and indeed, I do for several lists I'm on] but I haven't seen a mail 
agent that has a 'followup' button [or even fancier, and "unsubscribe me" 
button that automatically uses the List-unsubscribe: stuff...]
