For mailman lists I tend to use X-BeenThere instead. It is a more useful format. Even though the presence of List-Id is standard the format is less so. Here is the procmail rule that I use for the GNU lists. # gnu.org lists :0 * ^X-BeenThere: [EMAIL PROTECTED] * ^X-BeenThere: \/[-a-zA-Z0-9]+ $MAILDIR/Lists/gnu/$MATCH/ # nongnu.org lists :0 * ^X-BeenThere: [EMAIL PROTECTED] * ^X-BeenThere: \/[-a-zA-Z0-9]+ $MAILDIR/Lists/nongnu/$MATCH/ This automatically creates new mailing list folders as I subscribe to them. This means that I do not need to do any other special configuration when I subscribe or unsubscribe from a mailing list.
