If the user doesn't use 'lists' or 'subscribe' in the first place, I think the MFT header should not get set. I do agree that it's slightly confusing and took me a bit to understand the difference when I started using Mutt, but I do think the onus is on the user to understand the difference between 'lists' and 'subscribe'. That said, I've made my feelings known about MFT itself earlier in this thread. w
