Right. This has been discussed more than once in the past. If anyone is curious to get a better understanding of the previous debate and the reasons this has not been implemented, I suggest researching the mail archives. It's all there. Bjoern's notion is the correct one though. There's no need to provide even more list specific information in the email headers to allow someone to do proper filtering. Since that's the case, changes like those requested will not be forthcoming. Sorry if this stance causes difficulties for some individuals on this list.
