The Procmail way...
# fedora-list list
:0:
* ^TO_fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx
mail_folder/fedora

The sieve way...
# Fedora-list
if header :comparator "i;ascii-casemap" :contains "X-BeenThere" "fedora-
list@xxxxxxxxxx"  {
    fileinto "INBOX.fedora";
    stop;
}

not all that problematic but I appreciate the tendency to not change
things that are working. It's just so much faster - even on my 1 user
setup at home and incredibly so much faster in multi-client
environments.
