A simple rule like the following already works for Outlook
for the tomcat user discussion group mailing list.
"Apply this rule after the message arrives
sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
move it to the tomcat-user folder"
You can create other rules for your other mailing lists.

Instead of all of us taking the effort, we might ask the list owner to
add '[Tomcat]' to the subject.
On second thought, instead of all getting messages with '[Tomcat]' in
the subject, you might set up filters based in the sender of a message.
As a Tomcat user, you have become part of an Open Source community. That
means that you're ready to give at least part of what you take -- since
money is not the issue here (surprise!), it's effort. If you have a
problem, try to solve it yourself -- and then help others with the same
problem.
Un saludo,
Alex.
