Since I'm on a couple of lists and wish they'd put [list] in the subject line (and don't) is there an easy way to do this via MimeDefang? (this way, every place I look at my mail doesn't have to have duplicate mail filter setups.. it would just be done on the server..)
Most of the lists use the header "List-Id:"
Seems like that would be a job for procmail. Moreover, you can use procmail to centralize your filtering.
I didn't want to have to reload filters every time I changed mail clients or every time I looked at mail from a new location. So I set up IMAP (Dovecot on Fedora, originally UW-IMAP on Red Hat), and set up procmail filters to do all the filtering that I used to run on all my mail clients.
Here's a typical procmail "recipe":
:0 : * ^List-Id:.*MIMEDefang mail/Lists/Mail/MIMEDefang
The first line is a rule-start marker and a set of rule flags, in this case meaning lock the destination mailbox. The second line is the filter expression. The third is the destination for messages matching the expression, relative to the home directory.
Whenever I join a new list I just copy this sequence and edit to match the new list.
