Re: [Evolution] Filter on Sender is member of a particular contact list?

[Thomas Mittelstaedt <tmstaedt t-mittelstaedt de>]

Have you looked into labels? You could set up a special label for
<my_group>, set up a filter that moves all mails having that label to a
particular folder. That still leaves you with adding a new address to
the list of addresses that will get that label, <my_group>, though.
