As for mailing lists that are on Gmane,
use Gmane.

If they aren't, make sure they are :)

If you cannot -- hey, what lists are you on
anyway?! -- if you cannot, use mail splitting
to steer the traffic into a group which you
name whatever you want.

Note that this isn't as good as Gmane even if
done rightly because all the traffic gets to
you, not just the posts you care for, but it
should work as a way to organize
incoming mail.

Mail splitting can be useful tho, e.g.
create a mail.spam group and then steer spam
into it.

Well, isn't your Group buffer sorted
alphabetically already?
