Message filtering from mailing lists is best done with the "list-id" header. In the case of this mailing list, the header is "elecraft.mailman.qth.net". This is independent of subject and content then, so it avoids misfiling. The List-ID for the Yahoo K3 group is "Elecraft_K3.yahoogroups.com". Have a look at the email headers (Ctrl-U in Thunderbird) to see what the message headers are for other lists you subscribe too.
