Try again.  Your message included both

In-Reply-To: Message from John Buttery <john at io.com>
   of "Tue, 29 Oct 2002 13:33:08 CST."  <20021029193308.GA25878 at io.com>

and

List-Id: Mailman mailing list management users <mailman-users.python.org>

among its headers.  Both would have the In-Reply-To: header, still
leaving John without a way to determine whether a list message was
sent only to the list or both to him directly and to the list.
