Sorry for any inconvieniance

Just so you know, the List-Id header is the best way to filter, on
nomic.net lists, anyway.

Failing that, look at that "to:" line.  Don't look at whether or not
[spoon-discuss] or [spoon-business] is in the subject, as when you get
a message that started out in one list, and is replied to in another,
you get both.  And it works both ways; people sometimes reply to a
message that was sent in -discuss, but their reply is in business.

My big problem (which wasn't one until a few days ago) is people
posting things with To: thermodynomic, CC: spoon-discuss, nomicmarket.

My market and discussion filters keep arguing with each other about
which gets to take the message.

Mine don't. The List-Id: header is appended when the message gets sent to you.
So, the nomicmarket one would have:
List-Id: The Nomic Market <nomicmarket.nomic.net>
And the bnomic one:
List-Id: discussion list for B Nomic <spoon-discuss.nomic.net>

Ah, there's the problem. Apple Mail didn't want me sorting things by list-ids unless I could prove I knew what they were. Got it now. Thanks!
