No you don't; the rule will select that for you.

- Create a new folder for the list
- Go to Mail's settings, create a rule that matches List-Id is equal to the previously extracted content and moves the message to appropiate folder.
I need to repeat this for each mailing list I am subscribed to.

Right, and you need to do that only once for each list.

If I want to remove the list from Mail completely I need to remove the folder and then remove the rule.

True. But how often do you subscribe and unsubscribe to lists? Except for when I first ran mail.app, I've added or deleted lists only once or twice a year.


on perform mail action with messages

Well, for one thing you haven't assigned a variable to this. You need something like this:


on perform mail action with messages the_messages

Without that change, nothing will work.
