Hi Tim, I just downloaded Thunderbird to take a look, and I haven't tested this, but you might try the following (have you already tried this? you mentioned List-ID, so maybe this doesn't work...):
- Open the filters dialog, click New - Create a new filter (click the + in the top list) - In the dropdown to select the message header to filter by, choose Customize - Add "List-ID" as a new message header, click Add, click OK - In the dropdown, select the new List-ID header (it's not selected by default even after the new addition) - For the match pattern, use "contains" and "clojure@googlegroups.com" If this doesn't work, let me know and I'll try troubleshooting it on my mail.
