Okay. I take that back. It appears that I can customize my filters.
Just noticed that.
Still, there is no reason to BCC the list. Not everyone has the
ability to customize what their filters filter on (I'm sure there are
more then a few Evolution and OE users on the list).
Glad you found that you can customize the filters. I'm using 1.2.x on
OS X, and have been filtering based on the mailing list headers for a
while now. What I'm waiting for Mozilla to finally get straightened out
is a decent Reply-to-List feature. I think that might be why you get
CC/BCC'd a lot. I have to either do a 'Reply', and delete the senders
address, and insert the list's address, or do a 'Reply to All', and cut
the list address from the CC box and replace the senders address in the
To box. Relatively simple, but kind of a PITA that modern 'mainstream'
mail clients lack this sort of functionality.

Actually, that Reply-to-list functionality can be implimented on the
list itself. Why list-masters don't do this is so far beyond me that I
don't even bother asking anymore (or complaining about it when I have to
fix it myself (by hitting reply all, removing the to (which is the
person who sent the message to whom I'm replying) and changing the list
from CC to to (very easy, but extra work we shouldn't have to do)).
