   Well, I'll throw in my $0.02 worth.

   I run Slackware linux and my own MTA (postfix) using procmail as the local
delivery agent (MDA). I can filter incoming messages using anything I want.
With this recipe:

:0:
* ^TO_.*@*(lists\.)?gnucash\.org
accounting

all incoming messages to, or CC'd to, either lists.gnucash.org or
gnucash.org are placed in the 'accounting' file.

   Where I find list name prefixes within brackets useful is when I want
several maillists (such as for spatial analyses) to be filed in the same
place because they address the same subject matter. The bracketed name tells
me which thread belongs to which mail list.
