I was under the quite strong impression that the Debian mailing lists
ran on smartlist. Certainly, when I subscribed to a couple of lists
recently, I used the subject line and the only thing in the message body
was my .signature.

That said, I agree that duplicating the subject in the message body
would be one of the things I'd try if I were having problems.
