I already use a different field. It was suggested previously (about
four months ago).
To every outgoing mail I add:
X-Mailing-List: <procmail@informatik.rwth-aachen.de> archive/latest/196
Precedence: list
The format for the X-Mailing-List field would be:
<submission_address_for_the_list> archive_retrieval_key
The "Predence: list" field should be added by all mailinglist generated
mail. It solves problems with the configuration of old sendmails
(which don't send bounces on "Precedence: bulk"). And it is supported
by Sendmail-6.XX and BSD4.4-vacation.
