Click Show Details on gmail to view message headers. The headers from
the message I am replying to are entirely standard:

from	Korakurider <korakurider at gmail.com>
to	Bernie Innocenti <bernie at codewiz.org>
cc	Education <its.an.education.project at tema.lo-res.org>
date	Mon, May 19, 2008 at 7:00 PM
subject	Re: Culled the subject prefix
mailing list	its.an.education.project.tema.lo-res.org

So you just have to filter on To:, Cc:, and maybe Bcc: lines, or on
the mailing list line.
