It should be pretty clear in this case that the "intended recepient" is
the mailing list and consequently everyone subscribed to it. So what is
there to make all this noise about?
Furthermore, the information is added by the SMTP server (not the MUA),
so it can't be removed just like that, and due to firewall policies etc.
it's not very easy to send the messages via a different one. And trying
to get this feature removed from the service would be fighting windmills.
I should imagine that many corporate users face similar issues, so
"restricting by policy" like you suggest would mean excluding all of
them from the list(s). Is that what you want?
