Thunderbird can, in fact, handle List-Id for filtering.  Try setting up
your filter with a custom header option, enter List-Id, and it'll work.
 This does NOT work for after-the-fact IMAP filters, because
Thunderbird's header caching is stupid.  There's a bug somewhere about
it, which will be fixed in ten years or so, if things at Mozilla are as
usual.
