No it is not since the PostgreQL Lists can be filtered perfectly with:

----[ /usr/share/tdtools-procmail/ML_pgsql ]----------------------------
<snip>
:0
* ^X-Mailing-List:.*pgsql-\/[-a-zA-Z0-9].*
{
TMPVAR=${MATCH}
:0
.ML_pgsql.${TMPVAR}/
}
#---------------------------------------------------------------------
:0
* ^List-Post:.*mailto:[-(dot)(at)a-zA-Z0-9]+>
* ^List-Post:.*mailto:\/[-(dot)(at)a-zA-Z0-9]+
{
TMPVAR=`echo "${MATCH}" |tr '.' '_' |sed 'y|ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ|abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz|'`
:0
.ML_pgsql.${TMPVAR}/
}
<snip>
