I have a question about your formail suggestion.  The individual
messages that make up the digest only have 2 headers: "From" and
"Subject".  So when I run formail, the resulting messages don't have
anything unique that procmail can use to identify them as being from
mutt-users.  Other list's digests typically do one of two things:

* Include other headers in the individual messages, such as "To" or
  "Cc", or

* Prepend something to the subject, like "[wm-users] Original subject
  here".

How do you handle this when using formail to split the mutt-users
digest?
