Does this look at the From: or at the Reply-To: line of the header? I
would definitely prefer the last. This also doesn't really open the lists
up again for spammers, since they have to know somebody's subscription

Also, I am personally subscribed with an address that's an MX-record. How
will it behave on those situations?
