Of course, these people *should* be using decent mailers, and
then it wouldn't be a problem. If f.ex I tell my mutt that a
certain address is mailinglist that I'm not subscribed to, then
it generates a Mail-Followup-To: header that contains both the
list's and my own address. Assuming the clients on the other end
respect F'upto-Headers as they should (mutt does, of course),
this assures that I'll get the replies to a list I'm not
subscribed to.
