Can we set up the list server to force a 4-8 char prefix, uniqe to each list, on all subject lines sent to addressees ? Eg. "whq-usr" for Wine User forum. I receive several mailing lists with 15+ posts daily and it _really_ helps to be able to filter them into their own folders.

Hope that helps, Holly Bostick.

Att. Admin: Mailing list subject prefix... please?
Or, even better.. Filter on Mail List ID :) Using Konqueror for instance, click on one of the incoming messages in the preview pain, right click, create filter on mailing list. Most mailing lists have this set nowadays..
Thanks for you replies. I use a web-based service for all my lists. It only tests the usual visible fields and provides no complex expressions. The "from" contains the address of the individual sender. I can use the "to" and "cc" which _may_ contain the "wine-users" address, and presently I use two filters to test these fields. It pretty much works, but a subject line literal would be better, at least for me.
