This is what I used all those years back when I was on the mutt mailing
list:

:0
* ^Sender: owner-mutt-\/(announce|users|dev)
{
        LISTNAME=${MATCH}

        :0 fhw
        * ^Sender: owner-mutt-(users|dev)
        * ^Subject: \/.*
        | formail -I "Subject: [mutt-$LISTNAME] $MATCH"

        :0
        lists/mutt
}

(The reason I do the second check is because mutt-announce already had a
tag.  Just leave that line out, in this case.  Preserved so I don't make
any stupid mistakes myself.)
