Actually, that wouldn't help in this case.  In the sample he posted, the 
"From:" and "Reply-To:" addresses were BOTH set to the message author.  The 
list address was in a non-standard "Sender:" header.  PMMail never looks at a 
"Sender:" header, no matter what buttons you press.

It would be pretty easy to filter this kind of thing, however.
