Hello Emanuel, and thanks for your answer.

I like to be able to read the mailing lists I subscribe to from
anywhere, and the only way to reliably do that is subscribing via
e-mail. For that reason, I don't use NNTP, only IMAP.

I prefer to handle all filtering server-side via Sieve, so that I
have it available on any device, including my phone. This works
very well for me, probably just as well as the mail splitting
built into Gnus.

Well, alphabetical order would be one way to do it, but I'd like
to be more flexible than that. Currently I sort the group buffer
by score, which I find is helpful.
Furthermore, this:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
[ lists -- 38 ]
19/331 : help-gnu-emacs
0/50 : info-gnus-english
9/215 : postfix-users
10/316 : emacs-orgmode
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
... is more visually appealing than this:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
19/331 : Lists.help-gnu-emacs
0/50 : Lists.info-gnus-english
9/215 : Lists.postfix-users
10/316 : Lists.emacs-orgmode
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Right now, I automatically remove the "Lists." prefix, but still
have to manually add every mailing list to the `lists' topic, but
I'd like this to happen automatically.
Could I, somehow, loop through all groups available and manually
move them depending on their name? Or is there a better way to
achieve this, more built into Gnus?

This unfortunately doesn't seem to work for me - I suppose it's
because I use IMAP instead of NNTP ... :-)
Thank you again for a thorough answer,
- John
