This is a misconfiguration on [insert mail provider here]'s part.
It isn't ezmlm (ezmlm does have faults, but this isn't one of them).
Yet another way Google can attempt to control communication.

As someone who gets a flurry of email every day (> 200), I can tell
you that I unsubscribed almost every ML that doesn't prefix subject
with its list name. I don't believe in auto-filters (I'd never read
messages if they didn't hit Inbox), and it's a chore to pick out which
things I'm interested in based on subject alone without which ML it is.
So please don't stop rewriting Subjects.
Best to you and yours,
