Gmail allows you to filter emails and place them into corresponding mailbox.
For example, you can filter email by the "list" field and then tag them. For
emails sent to linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, I tag them with the tag
"linux-kernel", and then Gmail will automatically create a folder (mailbox)
called "linux-kernel" and places all emails from that mailing list there. When
creating filter, you can also choose to remove those emails from INBOX so that
they will not appear in two mailbox. In this way, all mails from all mailing
list get sorted into different mailbox, making things clean.

And then I download them using offlineimap, and use mutt to view them.
