Sorry, I didn't write that clearly. I want: - minimal config changes with new mailing lists AND - ability to change filtering for old messages, like if I want to display messages from several mailing lists together and then later I decide to separate them. signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Or make generic rules:
if (/^List-Id:.*/)
{
to Maildir/.debian.$MATCH1/
}
You only have to create the Maildir in advance, and even that can be
automated (I think I saw the code right here on the list).

For people who like the gmail > interface, this might be of interest. Thanks for the mention of notmuch. I like the "not much" philosophy, with no IMAP/POP/SMTP support. I prefer to separate that functionality from the mail client. I am using mutt. I had procmail set up to drop messages in different maildir boxes. Then I switched to mailfilter. And because it is such a pain when a new mailing list is added (or whatever), I switched to filtering using mutt's limit command, with all messages in one folder. But processing my 8000 messages is slow... signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Both sup (sup.rubyforge.org) and notmuch (notmuchmail.org) are interesting works-in-progress that are based off the Xapian search engine, and have curses-based interfaces.
