Can't you simply filter on the To: header? If the Subject: header is the only thing you can filter on, that's pretty terrible. Amusingly, we did have 'src' and 'doc' and 'ports' in the Subject: header when we were using CVS. That went away when we migrated to Subversion. What did you filter on between 2008 and 2020?
