But there is a more reliable way than looking at the To: From: or CC:
lines.  Every message posted on the list has the following lines in
the header:

  X-Mailing-List: <address@hidden> 
  X-Loop: address@hidden
  List-Post: <mailto:address@hidden>
  List-Help: <mailto:address@hidden>
  List-Subscribe: <mailto:address@hidden>
  List-Unsubscribe: <mailto:address@hidden>

I usually filter on the X-Mailing-List line.
