still there in the header at my local exim... somewhere between the
saving of the file by mutt and receipt by exim maybe...

I just had a stroke of brilliance... look in my =sent folder, because
that's done by mutt and not by exim... That would give me a copy of
themessage in the same state as when it left mutt. Sure enough, the
extra F-u to header is there already. I've got my mailing lists shown
in muttrc "lists" directive. Could that do it?

yep. man muttrc to the rescue. The "lists" directive includes both the
list *and* your own address in the f-u-to header, whereas "subscribe"
only includes the mailing list in the f-u header. 

learn somethin' every day.

thanks for pointing that out.
