If it gets shot down by a vote (which from reading the previous purposals it has not been purposed before) then we can say that it was put forward and lost.

>>yes this seems to me also to be the carrying point of the thread
and i think i noted two distinct proposals :
1 - modify the list mailman thingy to add the header if it recognises
the sender
2 - let users tweak their MUA (mail client) to add a specific header [
"X-Genuine-Nerd" being one suggestion ] and others filter on it
I'm sure we'll find more reasons for and against both.
