In Gmail's case it's a matter of not using gmail at all, as their
mailing list -breaking behavior happens whether you use IMAP and
thunderbird.  I work around gmail's breakage right now by using my own
SMTP server for sending messages to the list, so gmail won't recognize
my messages and discard them.

I could leave gmail, but it's not worth it for me at this point.  Python
is the only mailing list left of all the open source projects I used to
follow. It's pretty sad how they all abandoned a format that works very
well for web based formats.
