It should be pretty clear in this case that the "intended recepient" is the mailing list and consequently everyone subscribed to it. So what is there to make all this noise about? Furthermore, the information is added by the SMTP server (not the MUA), so it can't be removed just like that, and due to firewall policies etc. it's not very easy to send the messages via a different one. And trying to get this feature removed from the service would be fighting windmills. I should imagine that many corporate users face similar issues, so "restricting by policy" like you suggest would mean excluding all of them from the list(s).

It actually had [INVALID] /usr/lib64/IcedTeaPlugin.so:$ 1385126043000:$ I then remove the file and restarted, and now everything is back on track :-) I now remember doing this for other plugins in the past, but I'd quite forgotten that there even was such a file until I was reminded by a web search... Another question is why the plugin was considered "invalid" in the first place, of course.
