OK, it's good that To: works for you; but it's still worrying to
me that List-Id didn't work...

If you have time to help diagnose this, can you try:

	listid = devel.edk2.groups.io

in the config file and omit all `watchheader' directives?

public-inbox-watch will auto-translate listid to the appropriate
watchheader directive, but be case-insensitive in accordance
with RFC 2919 section 6.

Or are you be able to share a dump of the messages for me to try?
(getting a 502 error on <https://openfw.io/edk2-devel>)
Thanks.
