Ah, but if every mailer supported filtering by arbitrary headers,
then we wouldn't have to consume subject-space with [Sheflug].

Filtering by subject also gives false positives.  For example if you
get a personal reply to a list message -- it may contain sensitive
infromation and you may well reply it back to the list because of
the folder it has ended up in, stranger things have happened :)
