   If the person who started this had looked into his headers in the first
place, he might have seen the List-Unsubscribe: header field and not felt the
need to post his unsubscribe request to the list in the first place.

   Trust me, as a long-time listmaster, they ain't gonna bother, and even
when _I_ do it for them, not every machine properly preserves the envelope
recipient in the header fields, either, routinely when there are multiple
recipient addresses on the machine. (Outbound mail will only show the first
recipient of the batch in an added X-Envelope-Sender: header field, so you
have to depend on the recipient mail server.)
