For one thing, it appears to have broken post-only subscriptions, since my
posting address now appears to be getting mail from every Darwin mailing
list.

One irritation is that the To: field now contains the subscriber address (e.g. I pick up messages "To: email@hidden") instead of the list's address (darwin-kernel). I used to vgrep on the To: address in order to distinguish personal mail from list mail; now I need to have my MUA filter stuff. Not a great deal but irritating nonetheless.

I'll add my voice to this complaint, too. I use Mail, who's rules system is both weak and buggy, ...


I'm using Mail.app, too, and it works excellent. To set up a mail rule,

1) view a message coming from the list,

2) hit cmd-shift-H to view message headers,

3) look up the line beginning with "List-Id",

4) copy the mail address in this line to the clipboard

5) set up a rule a la "List-Id contains darwin-kernel.lists.apple.com".

List-Id is even one of the headers the rule editor suggests.

Works always, distinguishes mails going to the list from their duplicate sent directly to you and list software developers promised to never change the List Id header due to software upgrades.


If you prefer grepping through your mailbox, I can't see where "List-Id:" has more potential pitfalls than "To:"




Cheers,
Markus
