It should be possible to script that, using e.g. formail to extract the<br>
list id. </blockquote><div><br></div><div>But this would be done outside the batch tagging - correct? </div><div><br></div><div>I think tagging based on a header would be a powerful and useful feature, especially for tagging of lists.</div>

Be aware that the list-id header is often not really suitable<br>
for use as a tag, since it has quotes, spaces, and various punctuational<br>
in it. I guess you can make that work if you really want to.</blockquote><div><br></div><div>A cleaning would then be necessary, but it is not relevant to have the exact header as the tag.</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers,</div>
