I wasn't responding to that.  I was responding to your statement,
cut from your answer here, that you had yet to see a list you
belong to with X-Loop:, X-BeenThere:, etc.
 

Ah, gotcha. I should have written "But none of these are NECESSARY on 
any of my currently subscribed lists."  I'm assuming any RFC2919 are 
authoritative (which they should be), so I give those headers top 
ranking. I suppose X-BeenThere: is less ambiguous than 
Precedence:+From:. X-Loop:, again, is likely to be seen in non-list 
messages.

I've found the list I posted through searches of archives and googling. 
Has anybody found any other good "unique list identifying header" examples?

^((x-)?mailing-)?list(-(archive|help|id|name|owner|post|(un)?subscribe))?:|(x-)?beenthere:
    {
        .
        .
        .
    }

will probably catch most of them.
