I think it helps to sort out mails for some clients, if people use a single email account for all their mails then they easily distinguish between the personal mails (I consider them more important than mailing lists since there are only a few of them in the entire day) and mailing list mails. Most of the people will agree with me on this I hope.
Okay, I see what you are getting at. I use procmail to filter my email (especially mailing lists, since they are low priority) and let my personal mail drop into my inbox. So I don't have this problem.

I hope you also agree with me.
Unfortunately I really don't see the light, since I think mail should be segregated; but of course that is upto personal taste/usage and traffic. If the "powers that are" feel this way; theres nothing much I can do except cook up with a procmail recipe which will strip out the ugly prefix ;).
As the wise men say (more true in Open Source): If you have an itch, scratch it!
