I've written an AppleScript for my email client (OSX Mail 3.6) that,
if activated, will respond automatically to messages that contain
"moderator for [email protected]" in a Delivered-To header field by
sending a modified version of the original message to the originator
and the list. The responses would look something like this:
From: Dave Post
Subject: [users] (Reply All): originator's subject line
To: originator's email address, [email protected]
Cc: (this line would appear if one or more cc addresses were present)
(originator's name) is unsubscribed but will receive your response if
you Reply All to this message.

Originator's message
I believe that, for any email client, Reply All will send a message to
all addresses in the To line (and cc, if present).
These messages would not trigger filters or rules you may have created
to flag messages from unsubscribed users. If this mattered to you, you
could add one that triggers off the "(Reply All)" in the subject
lines, though. (AppleScript doesn't provide a way to create Delivered-
To fields.)
It's a clumsy workaround, but it might be helpful. Before I activate
it, though, I'd like some feedback. I won't do it if the group objects.
