> Not sure what you mean by "use a List-* header" -- I'm trying to clean out
Several RFCs (e.g., 2369, 2919) specify mail headers beginning with "List-". These culminate (I guess) with inclusion in RFC 4021. Most modern mailing list managers support one or both of List-ID or List-Post. You can write a single rule or two that will categorize almost all lists appearing from a mailing list, and dispose of almost all rules dealing with specific lists. # Discover mailing lists with List-Post: set :0 * List-Post: <mailto:\/.* { # To set LISTNAME to whole posting address: #LISTNAME=`echo "$MATCH" | cut -d'>' -f1` # TO set LISTNAME to LHS of posting address: LISTNAME=`echo "$MATCH" | cut -d@ -f1` } ## [insert other rules which update LISTNAME for edge cases] # File discovered list mail into per-list archives :0 c * LISTNAME ?? . $HOME/Mail/lists/$LISTNAME # Add X-Label for list name :0 f * LISTNAME ?? . | formail -I "X-Label: $LISTNAME" -- -D.
