[Mailman-Users] help with a semi-complex filtering scheme

hi,

i'm getting ready to move a largish (~1400 subscribers) from majordomo 
to mailman. i've been running a bunch of mailman lists for a while now, 
and they're all fine. but this particular list has a funny setup, and 
i'm not sure if it can be duplicated under mailman.

the list has two modes, regular and digest. however, any mail that is 
sent to the list with [ot] in the subject line only gets sent to the 
regular list, and does NOT get added to the digest. i accomplished this 
in majordomo via lots of headaches and whining and finally a couple of 
dummy lists that redirect mail hither and thither.

i'm hoping that there's some simpler way to do this with mailman, but 
having looked through the docs and config quite a bit i don't see it. i 
know that i can just bounce things with [ot] in the subject, but that's 
not at all what i need...

any ideas?

thanks,
douglas
