This was discussed when the list was originally started and almost everyone disliked the idea. I strongly suggest you either get a better email client such as Mozilla Firebird or just get an account a yahoo to collect the mail from this list.

client doesn't filter on this.



besides, it would be nice to look at the one-line summary info (subject,
from, date) and instantly know it's not spam, without relying on

Can't you filter on the To: or Cc: fields? I haven't seen a reasonable email client yet that can't, but my experience is perhaps limited.
