    I beg to differ.  I prefer to have one regex filter that would catch
mailing list mail and filter it into a folder under the "Mailing Lists" folder
using the name of the mailing list that sent it.  That way when I add new
mailing lists I don't have to add a new filter.  If I want the mail from a
particular list to go elsewhere, I'll then create a filter to run before the
"catch-all mailing lists" filter.

    Considering the major mailing list software uses one of three formats to
identify themselves, it can be done.  Of course this list is a bad example
since it doesn't have a standard "list" header.  :/
