That's correct.
Really a pity.

It should be possible to script that, using e.g. formail to extract the
list id.
But this would be done outside the batch tagging - correct?
I think tagging based on a header would be a powerful and useful feature, especially for tagging of lists.
I mean, if the script would be complex, it might be easier to use afew.
Be aware that the list-id header is often not really suitable
for use as a tag, since it has quotes, spaces, and various punctuational
in it. I guess you can make that work if you really want to.
A cleaning would then be necessary, but it is not relevant to have the exact header as the tag.
Cheers,
Rainer
