You can use formail for those things.
So... I'd like to have a recipe for my example mailing list where
it is called "idiot-list", and it has [idiot-list] in the subject
line.
If I understand the manpages correctly you should be able to do something
like this:
:0
* ^X-Mailing-List:.*idiot-list@
{
:0 fw
* ^Subject:.*[idiot-list]\/.*$
| formail -I "Subject: $MATCH"
:0:
IDIOT-LIST
}
Or perhaps it is easier to do it like this:
:0:
* ^X-Mailing-List:.*idiot-list@
* ^Subject:.*[idiot-list]\/.*$
| formail -I "Subject: $MATCH" >> IDIOT-LIST
But as usual I have not written anything similar to this before I wrote
this example... :-) I just read the manpages and applied some common
sense and logic.
