I clearly was unclear since I don't understand the question. :-)
The above pick selects emails with one or more List-* headers. The
`--othercomponent' bit of pick doesn't peer at the body, just the
headers.
I could have done «--list-id '$' -or --list-post '$' -or ...» but that
causes pick to apply multiple regexps, stopping when one works. This
way, it's the regexp that's coping with the variations, and it handles
RFC-less List-To-Port too.
