I would prefer that spammers not be fed extra email address nutrition by
embedding the name of the mailing list in messages.  I understand that
the mailing list names may be sitting around in raw format somewhere
where spammers can read them but I have been trying to nuke those locations
whereever I find them.

But, then, on a perhaps more practical note, I don't really see any reason
to include the email address of the mailing list in a message, anyway.
