What makes you think there's something wrong with this? Take a look at any
message you've received from this mailing list. You received it, but your
address isn't in the To header field or any other header field (except for the
Delivered-To header, which is added by the local delivery agent). You received
it because your address was specified in the SMTP envelope.
