Paul,
What I use to filter out (marketing)mailing lists from my inbox is the
following:
I defined a Marketing mailbox where I drop a (the first?) mail from that
source
I defined a condition based rule on my inbox:
- if source is in Marketing mailbox
- then move to Marketing mailbox ( or Auto_Marketing mailbox° )
By setting up submailboxes (on the sender) you can then easily see what
is related to which list/sender.
Or on the marketing mailbox you can setup a definition based rule to
move the mails to other mailboxes
Regards,
Marc

I’m trying to sort my mailing lists into something halfway
manageable and readable.
If I use the “out of the box” Mailing List mailbox, with the
following settings:
Sort for unique values of List-id > description
And name mailboxes as:
${list-id.description:${subject.blob:?${subject.blob:/capitalize}:${list-id.identifier.final-level}}}
I get a baffling array of names such as:
* 420a598457b46e0aa26a7a673mc list
* 15marches.substack.com
* 245.44880.info.alternatives-economiques.fr
* 245.44922.info.alternatives-economiques.fr
It seems some people use the list-id to name their lists, others an
identifier, others yet a url ….
And basically, whatever item I choose to sort by, or rename by, I’m
never going to get a proper list of names.
I’ve tried to rename some of the lists, which would work except …
some list managers seem to change list-id’s every few mails, so I
have mailing lists spread over many separate mailboxes …
I’ve started building rules to identify and tag each and every
newsletter, but this is brittle (the ux being what it is, it’s
difficult to have rules with more than 4 or 5 conditions, so I’ve
spread out the newsletters over multiple rules), any new newsletter
needs to go through a process….
I can’t imagine, with the number of power users using MailMate, that
there aren’t some interesting solutions around …
Paul.
