You're using:
X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.79 [en] (Win98; U)
By default that program will not display all of the message headers
--- you need to select the 'View all headers' option in order to do
that. I haven't used Netscape 4.x for quite a while now, so I can't
remember the exact sequence of operations to do that. However, if you
go to the File menu and select "Save As..." and save a message as a
.txt file you can then open it in Notepad or the like and see all of
the headers.
Now, I know from experience that Netscape's filtering functionality is
perfectly capable of filtering on any SMTP header, although you will
probably have to set it up as a custom item as only a few common
headers are supplied as "pre-packaged" targets. It shouldn't be too
taxing to configure. I reckon "List-ID" is probably a tad more
effective than "Sender:" as a filtering term, but that's really a
matter of taste.
Cheers,
Matthew
