OT: Thunderbird filter

The emails being sent to postfix-users-digest@... are messing
with my head. I setup a filter to put emails sent to
users@... into a SA folder. Whenever an email gets
sent to postfix-users-digest@..., I think there's something wrong
with TB. I have subsequently added a filter for that address as well.

This list's mail is not addressed to each individual user, so you
can't catch that in Thunderbird (look at the headers, you won't find
your personal address in any To or Cc headers).  My Thunderbird filter
looks for users@...

If you really wanted to filter by recipient address, you could filter
by Delivered-To, but you should check to make sure that that header
exists given your own environment.  I haven't had any luck using
Thunderbird to filter with Received headers.

How about List-Id: header? I use that in my maildrop. Works like a charm.

in horde webmail i do this from ingo:

# postfix
if anyof ( header :comparator "i;ascii-casemap" :contains "List-Post"  
"postfix-users@...", header :comparator "i;ascii-casemap"  
:contains "List-Post" "postfix-devel@..." ) {
      fileinto "maillists.postfix";
      stop;
}

# spamassassin
if anyof ( header :comparator "i;ascii-casemap" :contains "List-Id"  
"users.spamassassin.apache.org", header :comparator "i;ascii-casemap"  
:contains "List-Id" "dev.spamassassin.apache.org" ) {
      fileinto "maillists.spamassassin";
      stop;
}


sorry for big paste, and line wraps, but it works for me :)
