This one works for all my debian and mailman controlled mailing lists:

:0
* ^((List-Id|X-(Mailing-)?List):(.*[<]\/[^>]*))
{
        LISTID=$MATCH
        :0
        * LISTID ?? ^\/[^@\.]*
        .list.$MATCH/
}

That automagically does the right thing, so I don't need to add each list as
I subscribe to them.

There's a few more that work for other mailing list managers in my
.procmailrc at http://spacepants.org/conf/dot.procmailrc
