The "Subject" seems to be the simplest and the most straight :->forward way of sorting. I have to wonder how you manage to track -STABLE, yet are forced to use a brain damaged mail user agent. Adding generally useless verbiage to the headers to help deal with a brain damaged mail agent that doesn't run on the OS the list is about seems a wonderfull exercise in irony. How about creating a second mail drop to subscribe to the list? A hotmail account, possibly? I believe that recent versions of MSOE can fetch mail from them. That would allow you to filter on the To: field.
