Actually, this mailing list neither adds in a "Mailing-List: ..." header nor a "Precedence: bulk" header, which are the two easiest ways to spot a modern mailing list. I'd suggest you complain to the mailing list managers, not the poor people whose [most likely] properly configured autoresponders aren't being given the information they should be given.
Actually, the way to spot *any* mailing list is to notice that your email address is not listed in the To: or Cc: lines.
These peoples' autoresponders are broken; the list is fine.
No, the list is not fine. It should set the Precendence level. Your method would automatically assume that anyone who BCC'ed you was a mailing list.
