Why don't you just filter on something _other_ than the recipient?

For example, all email from this list server seems to have this header:

  List-Id: Rsync user list rsync.lists.samba.org

Putting mail with this header into your rsync folder/inbox seems like it
would catch everything coming from the rsync listserver, regardless of
the contents of the To: and CC: lines.

Or, look at the headers for other, similar ones.  You don't _have_ to
use To: and Cc:.

Or, if you do, then it's time for a new email client... :)


HTH.

I filter using the List-Id field for all email and it works well --
email specifically to me ends up in my main mailbox, because it might
be urgent.

Even if your mail client isn't that smart, you in most programs that
have any kind of filtering it would be possible to do something like
TO CONTAINS rsync@ OR CC CONTAINS rsync@.

Please yourself.
