I've thought this too;  a hurdle in etiquette that if they pass would
make me consider using them if I were looking.

Mailman does have `topics', an ability to scan the subject and start of
the email for regexps and assign them to the defined topics, subscribers
choosing which topics interest them.  Seems overkill for the dribble of
job postings on here though, and not foolproof.
