What is a mailing list? To me it is a script driven reply to all central repository. Sounds like a resigning requirement but since I neither design nor manage one twill leave it up to the market. thanks, Bill

The very early thinking back at DK-00 was that a participating list might sign List-ID. The idea being that List traffic is distinctly different and that a verifier/UA might sensibly treat such traffic differently in the presence of a List-ID. Subsequent revisions went down the path of generalizing that to Sender. In retrospect, I'm not sure I'm a fan of that generalization as List traffic is so different that it need not be squeezed into a generalized category that otherwise is almost completely absent in real-life traffic.
