There seems to be a workaround. Instead of basing the filter rules against the "List-Id" field, imapfilter can easily parse both the Cc: and To: headers (contain_cc() and contain_to()) and copy the mails to the good folder (copy_messages()). I expect it should work but as the folders are labels at Google, I can't say. I didn't tested and probably won't because I've already switched to gmx. -- Nicolas Sebrecht
