Could we do something similar with the Debian mailing lists? Especially
for unsubscribe requests being sent to the lists themselves.

You could put

   | condredirect you-foo-request grep -s whatever
   you-foo-outgoing

into ~you/.qmail-foo and then use qlist for ~you/.qmail-foo-outgoing.
Or maybe a more positive approach:

   | condredirect you-foo-outgoing grep -s '^Distribute-This-Message-To: foo'
   you-foo-request

Or hook in a fancier mailing list program.
