I think it has been explained a few times now that out options are 
either to reject mails with signed List-* headers before distribution or 
distribute them with a broken signature.
We will not distribute mails with broken signatures because that would 
immediately cause us to get into serious blacklisting troubles with all 
large mail providers worldwide - we have been there and we will not go back.

We _NEED_ our own List-* headers on our mails to comply with say gmail 
policies for large senders (5k mails/24h for google and we are way above 
that) and to provide easy features for our users (say one-click 
unsubscribe in most popular webmail interfaces), so there is nothing we 
can do here unfortunately.

not sure what you are try to tell us here - what is relevant is whether 
the signature (if there is one) still validates and whether those lists 
actually maintain List-* headers.
