I think it is because the list modifies the message. You are not getting 
100% what I sent. You are getting what I sent plus the unsubscribe 
information that is added at the bottom. So, in reality, it _is_ doing 
what it is supposed to. It is alerting you to the fact that the message 
has been altered.

In all other places, where the message is delivered unmodified, it shows 
a valid signature.
