​A mailing list doesn't really "receive" email - it is only a distribution
mechanism. IANAL but basically adding boilerplate like that to mail sent
to a public mailing list is pointless - there are no "intended recipients"
but rather the message is being put into the public domain for anyone to
consume, regardless of whether they are/were a member of the mailing list
to which the email was addressed.
