it's not that bad, plus we are mostly men of scripts, and a little sed
script solves it easely. I do it with all the other lists that add it.

as for which header to check, I think "X-list: linux-il" is the
"right" way to detect this. I am aware that some of you out there may be
using a slightly older mail reader that allows only a closed set of
headers to filter by, but there is an easy way to circumvent this
shortcome, move to Pine or Mutt :-))
