I'm not entirely sure how Evolution is doing it, but the reliable way to filter list mail is to look at the SMTP reverse-path, often visible in a 'Return-Path:' or 'Sender:' header, or in the initial 'From ' line of mbox mail. List-ID, X-Been-There, Reply-To and other headers all have false positives. -- dwmw2 _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
