Making the most of Apple Mail
This page is a work in progress. It will contain various suggestions to help you make the most of Apple Mail, the default email program on Macintosh computers.
Filtering your emails
To filter your emails into a separate folder, a simple rule for subject lines containing "[Mac-Min]" will continue to work as it has in the past. However, this would mix off-list replies sent to you into the list traffic.
A more specific way to filter Mac-Min messages is to filter by Mailman's "list-id" header. All messages sent through Mac-Min will have a list-id header that contains "mac-min_catug.org.catug.org" (without quotes).
In Apple Mail, if List-id is not in the list of fields that you can use in Rules, then select Edit Header List.
This brings up the Message Headers window; click on the + tool at the lower left, and add List-id.
After this, you will be able to use List-id in the same way that you could already filter on From, To, Subject etc.
