Here's the one I've been using for a long time that works:

if ( /^(To|Cc):.*debian-user@*/ )
{
to $MAILBOX/deb-user
}

Ya, the from won't work because the message is still going to be from each individual that sends it.

But the best header to use for any of the mailing lists hosted @lists.debian.org is 'X-Mailing-List:'
