I think we've had this debate in the past. I don't think that's
possible, given the sorts of things that Mailman may do with
messages, including taking different actions on different messages
with the exact same combination of envelope sender and recipient,
based on the values of other things in the headers (such as placed
there by anti-spam/anti-virus scanning systems).
If you want to completely re-write your MTA so that it has a deep
understanding of all the internal workings of Mailman, feel free to
go ahead and do that.
Otherwise, I suspect that we're going to continue to have this
kind of problem for quite some time.
