There are a lot of separate organisations under the Oxfam banner.

The problem is that Oxfam uses Lotus Notes for internal email, and Notes 
doesn't recognise the precedence header. It isn't something that an 
ordinary user can reconfigure. I think we've got Oxfam GB's Notes servers 
configured to not do this any more, but Carlos probably has to talk to his 
own Notes administrators.

Alternatively I'd recommend the solution I use which is to read lists with 
nntp through Gmane so I don't get my inbox filling up with list mails.
