Well they are marked. For mailing lists like OSM I do not filter the 
email address but the subject. The "[OSM-talk]" part, stays in the 
subject, even if this has been a direct reply to your message. They are 
even correctly positioned in the thread in Thundbird here.

So since everything which comes through the list has the [OSM] part in 
the subject and every reply which is sent directly to you has it either, 
I'd just change my filter from email address to subject and everythings 
as you like it.

regards,
Norbert

PS: I sent this mail only to the list, just to be sure you don't 
consider this mail rude. ;-)
