Another approach I use for my most active discussion lists is that I sort them on arrival into their own IMAP (not "Smart") mailboxes that are all inside a "Lists" folder, so that I can then have a "Smart" mailbox that contains the past fortnight of messages from all mailboxes underneath "Lists" split into submailboxes by mailbox name. This is also helpful for mailing lists that don't use List-Id headers, since the rules sorting messages on arrival can target whatever arbitrary header fingerprints work for a particular list.
In Mail.app I had similar rule setups to redirect. I may end up forgoing the smart mailbox for mailing lists altogether, and instead file them into their own folders… The _Unread_ smart folder is _fantastic_ in that it aggregates by which folder things are unread _in_, so I can quickly find a folder for a mailing list post-filing.
