My understanding is that mailwasher is checking against DNS blacklist servers, which list IP addresses, not email addresses. Maybe 216.92.131.4 got into Spamcop's list somehow. It's not there now, though. In any case, I'd suggest a whitelist rule along the lines of "If the entire header contains "Mailing-List: contact php-general-help@lists.php.net" then don't display the email in the messages list and mark the message as from a legitimate source." Or whatever header line you want to filter on. Whitelisting any mailing lists you're subscribed to only makes good sense if you don't want to get kicked off every five minutes.
