Are you saying you have a rule that works for individual messages, but
not for digests?
The preferred email header for sorting list email is "List-Id". List-
Id is supposed to be a unique, permanent ID for a list. Like an email
address, it can contain descriptive text -- ignore that. For this
list, match on "<applescript-users.lists.apple.com>".
Some notes:
• As with an email address, the surrounding less-than/greater-than
characters may be omitted when there is no descriptive name included.
To make a robust rule, you should check for any string containing
"<the id>" and also for a string that is exactly "the id" with no
other surrounding characters. Do not match on just "the id" anywhere
in the string, because other lists may use the same suffix (although
it is rare).
• The ID is supposed to be permanent. To guarantee uniqueness, it is
usually constructed by appending the domain name of wherever it is
originally hosted. Even if the list is moved to another domain, the ID
should remain the same. Unfortunately, some list admins don't do this
and instead require everyone to modify their rules to match some new ID.
