[^@]+ includes everything up to the first "@". -- My personal
preference for Maildir names.

Also above rule is for Maildir, not mbox. For mbox, and your
naming scheme, it should be something like:

:0:
* ^List-Post:.*mailto:\/[^>]+
Lists/$MATCH/


Also be aware that not /every/ mailing list inserts a List-Post
header.
