Full ACK. I got flooded by them, too. Never mind, everything can
be filtered ;)

Well, yes and no. Yes: you can add them to Custom headers file,
No: they're not added automaticly (maybe this could be implemented
but i think it's ok if you run a lot of lists to generate the
customheaders file by a script or so ;)

correctly. I think the 'append a footer' feature is ok, too. Just
disable html mail and stuff and it's nearly fine. The List- Headers
should be always present (not hard to implement ;)
Implementing appending of stuff for multipartmessages just suck
cause you have so many ways clients do 'their' encoding and
maybe some gateways who add shitty 'this is confidential mail'
footers, too, so you may end up in a 4 or more part mail which
only contains a one liner...
