Hmm you should NEVER use the Subject line to filter email. This is not a
good way to filter email! Instead look at the FULL headers. Debian uses
something like the following in ALL the lists...
	X-Mailing-List: <debian-listname@lists.debian.org>
For example .. in debian-user it is ths following..

X-Mailing-List: <debian-user@lists.debian.org> archive/latest/48547

If you us procmail put the following in your .procmailrc file..

:0:
* ^X-Mailing-List: <debian-user@lists.debian.org>
IN.Debian-User
