Hmmm.
I've always included tests for $h_to: and $h_cc: to archive the
copy which I CC to myself when I send mail out.
It is useful to keep both sides of a correspondence in the same place.
I take your point about $sender_address: being a better way of
identifying mail sent to a list, but that isn't always what I want.
For example, if someone forwards a mail from the exim list to me,
I want that to be filtered as a mail from that person, not a mail
from the list.
