I'll add to this: %y and %Y both respond to the %?y?if-else? structure,
and both take standard string-formatting stuff (%-4.4y). My procmail
inserts an X-Label for each known mailing list, thus offloading most
pattern-matching from Mutt to my MDA. Inside Mutt, I only every use ~y
for matching lists.

This works as well for multi-tagging.
