But will that?

If you're talking procmail, probably need a "*" ...

* ^List-Id:.*<cisco-nsp.puck.nether.net>

but I won't claim to be positive :-)

My own delivery script includes

    elsif anyof (
      header :contains "List-id" [
			 "cisco-nsp.puck.nether.net",
			 "cisco-bba.puck.nether.net",
			 "ietf-mta-filters.imc.org" ],
	/* ... */
	keep;
    }

I don't particularly care for the [nsp] either, but then again if it
really bothered me greatly, I'd just put something in my script to edit
it out.  (Considering that Mailman does have per-user preferences, I'm a
little surprised that subject tagging isn't one of them... I just spent
some time on various Mailman sites but couldn't find it.)
