Come to think of it, there's probably no reason why anyone should use a gimp.org address for arbitrary messages to the mailing lists. They are good for automated things like the bugs list or could be used for stricly project-releated stuff like release announcements or other specific roles - ftpmaster, webmaster and such.

This problem would be solved then as well - all mails from a gimp.org address would be serious and important; all other messages will (have to) be taken at face value.
