The quick n dirty.

I have in ~/.procmailrc -
MAILDIR=$HOME/Mail
PMDIR=$HOME/Procmail

In ~/Procmail/lists.rc I have the following for this list -
:0:
* (^TO|^CC.*)debian-user@lists.debian.org
deb-users                                                                                           
In my ~/Mail directory I have a file called "deb-users"

In ~/.muttrc I have for this list -
mailboxes ! =deb-users
and
subscribe debian-user

Once you get the basics set up see "man procmailex" for some nice
examples.
