Frequently asked. Yes, it is a Very Bad Thing.
If it *really* upsets you, there's list header option to do it.
The problems are:
1) It hides the fact this was a *list* posting rather than a one-to-one
mailing (which can be confusing if the poster is somebody you exchange
direct mail with as well).
2) If you have a list with 500 subscribers, this results in 500 1-recipient
mail messages rather than 1 message with 500 recipients. The distinction
will probably not be lost on your mail hub administrators.....
