I read it as a Usenet newsgroup, far better than as an E-Mail list
IMHO.  Wherever I have a choice (quite a few mailing lists are
'gatewayed' with newsgroups) I choose the newsgroup, newsreaders are
much more able to manage this sort of discussion group.

Alternatively, if you want to stay with the E-Mail format then use
some sort of filtering that will allow you to send each mailing list
to its own folder.  I do this with a home-grown python script but most
E-Mail programs have the ability to do this themselves nowadays.
