If your mailing lists can’t be easily defined in a single smart
mailbox with automatic split into submailboxes, you can reverse the
process below and create a folder with no conditions but check to
include all submailboxes, then inside create a smart mailbox for each of
your lists. I had to do that because some of my mailing lists require
multiple conditions to display them separately. In other words, the
"Submailbox for each unique value of From/Name" or anything similar was
too simplistic in my case. Hopefully, it works for you.
Tagging is indeed an overkill, although it works.

If by folder you mean a smart folder then you can just create a smart
folder named "Mailing Lists" with the rules that make it match what
you are after, i.e. "List-Id" exists to get all mailing-lists. And
then a smart folder which will be your inbox add a mailbox line that
says "Not Mailing Lists".
Then there are no need to do any tagging as its all done virtually for
you.

Charlie -- I'm new to Mailmate, too (and loving it!). Here's the
approach I've taken with mailing lists.
I created a new Smart Mailbox called Newsletters. In the Conditions
section of its properties I set all the requirements for what I want
collected (emails sent from all the various newsletter accounts). On
the Sub-mailboxes tab I turned on "Submailbox for each unique value
of From/Name." This creates a separate folder in the Smart Mailbox
for each Name I receive. So, for example, I now automatically have
folders under the Newsletters folder for one journal or another.
Finally, in the Smart Mailbox properties I added a rule (in the
Rules tab) that tags each incoming message with a Newsletters tag.
Now, on my mail Inbox I set a condition that tells it to shows
messages that **don't** have a Newsletter tag. This way, all the
messages filtered into my Smart Mailbox don't show up in my Inbox.
Hope this makes sense. As I say, I'm new here, too, so perhaps the
others will have a more straightforward way to do this. But the
approach I've taken works and I'm thrilled with the results.
Yes, it makes sense. So I should be able to create a "Mailing List"
tag and get other mailboxes to ignore mails that are so tagged. A
little clumsy but workable, I guess.
