| In most cases, the
distinguishing feature of a mailing list is the To
address. Therefore, that's what you should use to create
the rule. The important thing to remember is that you want
to use the underlying e-mail address, not the display
name, which can vary depending on how different people
send to the list.
When you want to create a rule based on a particular
e-mail address, put that address in your Personal Address
Book or Contacts folder. (It's handy to have it there
anyway, so you can send messages to the mailing list
yourself.) Then, create the rule, and choose sent
to people or distribution list as the first of
your criteria, and pick the list's address from the PAB or
Contacts.
If a particular mailing list can't be filtered from the
To address, then look for a footer that's consistent on
all messages from the list, and use text from that footer
to build your rule. |
