Hi Gianluigi,

I am going to echo Bruce's question: Are you using webmail interface or an email client like thunderbird?

I will now try answering your question about on what to filter. You can't filter on the "From:" field as that is now always the 
Sender (but the "Sender:" header is blank). Are you able to filter on *any* message header? If so, you could filter on either 
the "To:" header or the "List-Id:" header. For either header, set your filter to trigger on if it contains:
user.lists.gambas-basic.org
