Sigh. My mail client (Outlook) doesn't provide a good way to quickly filter
on To or List-Id, only "subject", "body", or "list of commonly used fields."
That's the only way I can filter with one keystroke. It takes many
keystrokes and clicks to get to the other filters.  And I've tried other
mail clients, and they just don't work for my needs.  It would be one thing
if it were something that I needed to do once a week, but with the traffic
on this list I need to do it hourly!

Obviously there's a group of people that would like to see this. Is there
any chance for a compromise?  I understand about "burning" 14 characters,
but what about four, i.e. [du]?  I'm asking for something that is reasonably
unique in subject heading. Hell, if you would just put "~" in the subject it
would be better than nothing!
