Actually, the easiest thing to do is set up a filter in your email program
that transfers all email sent to hwg-insertmailinglistnamehere(at)hwg.org -or-
sent to hwg-mailinglistname(at)mail.hwg.org to a specific folder. That's what
I did. If you'd like a hand with doing this, email me off-list with the
lists you've subscribed to and the email program you're using, version, and
OS.
