Many mail clients allow you to "filter" your email. Filters permit email users to redirect specified mail into pre-defined locations (i.e. folders), or allow you to sort and prioritize mail automatically.
How you set up filters varies by client and platform, but you should use the "Sender:" header.
For example, if you are subscribed to the McCoyPottery-Talk mailing list, on the Sender: line you will see: mccoypottery-talk@lists.mccoypottery.com. By checking to see if the Sender: shows it from owner-listname, you can filter messages from a given list.
