This will be good advice once all the mail clients support filtering on List-ID. What about now?
Get a better mail client. or double check. The good mail clients let you specify custom headers to filter on, so just create a custom one for list-id.
If your mail client really is braindead (how do you filter on yahoogroups then?) then Sender is an acceptable backup, and there's no excuse for a client to not filter on that, IMHO. sender should be stable most of the time, but might change during upgrades. List-ID is defined to be static across the life of a list just for this reason.

IMHO: Jargon. Acronym for In My Humble Opinion. Used to flag as an opinion something that is clearly from context an opinion to everyone except the mentally dense. Opinions flagged by IMHO are actually rarely humble. IMHO. (source: third unabridged dictionary of chuqui-isms).
