Should the majority have to go out of their way to accommodate the 
sophisticated few?  Hardly seems a reasonable request ;-)

But just so as not to make it too much of a hardship for either party, 
there is a header called :
   List-Post: <mailto:wellylug at lists.wellylug.org.nz>
on every message and in most mail readers a single click on the mailto part 
of that will get you a brand new message to the list (hopefully without 
those pesky hidden headers attached)

(I assume that the lack of sophistication of the 'offenders' means that 
they are probably users of GUI interfaces :-p ;-)
