Few remarks on this procmail recipe:

 - The "H" flag is default when filtering messages, there is no need to 
   specify it in this recipe.

 - The "." matches "any character" and should be escaped when matching a 
   literal "dot". Highly theoretical of course.

 - The ".*" at the end isn't needed, as it will match the regular 
   expression without an ending. In other words, if you want to 
   explicitly this phrase and there shouldn't be no characters 
   aftewards, use the "$" marker.

So, this would become:

  :0:
  * ^List-Post:.*<mailto:mutt-users@mutt\.org>
  mutt-users

Or, as this header isn't supposed to look differently:

  :0:
  * ^List-Post: <mailto:mutt-users@mutt\.org>$
  mutt-users
