Unfortunately, I can't help on this point; I've never seen Outlook 2007
in person, and what I have to use at work is Outlook 2003, which (at
least as installed there) seems to send messages with the proper header
by default. It seems unlikely to me that they would have had support in
the 2003 version and not in the 2007, but I can't entirely rule it out.

Most likely, the next suggestion would be for you to create a separate
mail account (probably Webmail of some type) for these mailing lists, if
you cannot configure correct behaviour in your mail client. This is more
work and less convenience for you, and I can understand if you aren't
interested in doing it (I loathe Web-based E-mail myself), but the
developers are not necessarily terribly sympathetic on these points.

Further discussion of this particular topic should probably be taken
offlist, since it is no longer relevant to the development of FFmpeg...
