You can use procmail, a very simple yet efficient and very powerful mail
filter. If you use the following rule:
:0
^X-Mailing-List: <debian-\/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
debian-${MATCH}
you can filter all your debian mailing lists automatically in folders
named debian-laptop, debian-user, etc. Just subscribe to a list and the
next message from that lists automatically creates the folder and is put
there by procmail.
I used the X-Mailing-List header, but of course, List-Id could be used.
Maybe better, even.
