Consistent, yes. It is also ambiguous. It does not uniquely identify a message as coming from the list. If someone does a private (off-list) reply to one of your messages, a filter built on such a criteria will end up sorting it in with list traffic. I've seen a few embarrassing messages appear on lists as a result of this (responses to private messages ending up on a list). There is a unique header which is present on all messages coming from the list server used by Elecraft, which has been available since at least 2001: "List-Id: Elecraft Discussion List <elecraft.mailman.qth.net>" Depending upon your MUA, "Elecraft" in header "List-Id: or "List-Id: Elecraft" in headers should be sufficient to unambiguously identify a message as coming from this discussion list. I don't know if Elecraft has other lists (a beta tester one, perhaps), but if so, a longer string may be needed to uniquely identify each for anyone on multiple lists. For MS Lookout, a rule such as "Apply this rule after the message arrives with List-ID: Elecraft in the message header" should work.
