You mean the lowerce'ing recipe. Yup:
9.21 Converting value to lowercase
I made a module to specifically deal with numerous mailing lists I've
somehow got into a little by little. Module currently find heurestically
any new mailing list I join in.
You can easily convert Grabbed list name to something more suitable folder
name if you wish. See JA_LIST_CONVERSION.

I do exactly this: I manually create initial mailing list file to prevent
accident happening. Emacs Gnus reads ~/Mail/spool/list.<mailing-list-name>.spool
RC_LIST = $PMSRC/pm-jalist.rc
...
INCLUDERC = $RC_LIST # returns LIST if mail was from mailing list
:0
* LIST ?? [a-z]
{
spool = "$SPOOL/list.$LIST.spool"
:0 :
*$ ? $IS_EXIST $spool
$spool
}
$IS_EXIST is abraction of "test -r", because different platforms don't
support all -X file tests. See pm-tips.txt for more. pm-jalist.rc is part
of pm-code.shar, See X-info header.
