Procmail is not that hard to understand, especially for Majordomo-managed
lists.

For BSD lists, I use

# -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
# The FreeBSD lists
# -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
# ADMP: Majordomo@freefall.freebsd.org
# LIST: <list>@freebsd.org or freebsd-<list>@freebsd.org
#

:0:
* ^Sender:.*owner-(freebsd-|)security.*
freebsd/security

[[ repeat for each list ]]

You can add 

:0:
* ^TO(freebsd-|)security@
freebsd/security

to catch Cc: to your own articles.

To catch duplicates (cross-posts and so on) use AT THE BEGINNING of
.procmailrc:

############## Weed out duplicate messages sent to many mailing-lists ######

:0 Wh: msgid.lock
| formail -D 32768 msgid.cache
