I keep the information about my mailing lists in a file similar to what Chris Green described in this thread. In order to prevent overzealous munging I use a sed script generated from it to remove the subject prefixes. After a quick glance over formail's manual page I was not able to see how one could use it to edit the contents of a header field -- only to add or remove complete header fields.

If your IMAP server is able to run Sieve scripts you could try to pull off something similar with it. Regards, Sebastian
