Uh, no.  No MUA can "recognize list aliases" as it would require
knowledge of what software the receiving MX runs and how it is
configured.

No MUA needs to "recognize list aliases" either.  As long as they reply
to the address listed in the original email's From: field (and
optionally to those listed in the Cc: field), they will be fine.

The culprit here is HPS, who added freebsd-current@ to the Cc: list.
