For me that works in the wrong direction. I absolutely want to get the
mails through the mailing-list, so that they are correctly filtered. I
would prefer to not get an extra copy directly. (but I can live with
that).

Of course the mailing list server can't filter mails it never sees.

Mutt adds a header to indicate the preferences of the sender, but I
think that is only recognized by mutt, so it's not a general solution.
