There is a simple solution to this kind of problem - for my non-day-job-related software stuff, I usually subscribe under my sourceforge address. Sourceforge's is simple re-direction service so I actually cannot post from it; but I like incoming e-mails to go through sourceforge for a double spam filter. So e-mails come in through sourceforge but replied under my real address if I do, and it get held occasionally in the past depending on the mailing list policies.
The solution I found is this: subscribe both addresses, but disabling delivery to the real-one. (this can be done by the user, no admin required). This way I can post from the real one, but receive twice-filtered mailing-list e-mails through an alias. (For R-devel, I am receiving and posting from my day-job address, if you are wondering...)
