Seconded. As you say, it's easy enough to see messages that are from  
devl, but if a subject is simply “Please Help”, I can't tell if it  
came through feedback or mercurial or any other user list I may be  
subscribed to. The exceptions are Bitbucket-users and growldiscuss,  
both of which use subject tags.

The other option is to set up smart mailboxes, but Mail is bad at  
keeping the unread counts synchronized among the many mailboxes. For  
example, both copies of your message are “unread” in my Adium- 
development smart mailbox right now.
