and others have taken the same position.

What about the compromise of a To: line like this:

  To: sub@scri.ber (via the Foo Mailing List)

which should still allow filtering on the To: header by members' mail clients
that can't be set to test arbitrary header lines?  From: could still point
to the author.

Unfortunately that would not solve the problem of an increase in vacation
autoresponses.
