Nice gimmick. But is the filter automagically removed when
unsubscribing using the respective header? Only then it would
make some real sense IMHO. Otherwise I would rather have
Google not censoring my own postings to list, requiring me to set
up two mail addresses and two subscriptions to see my postings
(or CCs/BCCs to myself for that matter).
