Not that I am aware of and why would I put a declaration like that in
the subject line if I was sending it directly to its intended
recipient? In any case, I certainly would not follow it up with an "ON
LIST" declaration. Admit it, it does seem rather absurd.

In any case, it makes no difference to me. I was just curious.
