You can also meet this need quite easily with an intelligent mail reader -- simply
filter based on TO address, and put all the SERVLET-INTEREST messages into a folder
(into which this message will automatically be placed), all the RMI-INTEREST
messages into a different folder, and so on.  That way, you don't have to try to
make every list server manager in the world conform to your approach.
