You should be able to do the same thing with Deliver.  Assuming you
have Perl (DON'T YOU?), your .deliver file would look like:

----------------------------------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/perl

open(H, $ENV{'HEADER'});
while (<H>) {
	if (/^X-Mailing-List: <(zsh-\w+)[^/]*/(\d+)/) {
		print $1, "/", $2, "\n";
		exit;
	}
}
close(H);

print $ARGV[0], "\n";
----------------------------------------------------------------
