There's been a lot of requests for multi-list support. I've added this functionality and you can get it from Extras-Devel. It's still a bit experimental, hence that's why it's in Extras-Devel. I'm working with it to see if the work-flow is easy enough. I'm planning to add notifications, but it's not in this version yet. It will arrive in the next I hope.
Until then you can use the multi-list functionality, but without any notifications as to what has happened.

There is a distinction between your current loaded list and the lists saved. You have to see the saved lists as templates. Once you've loaded such a template and you edit the list by adding items and you save the newly added items it IS NOT saved to the template you've loaded.

easylist (0.3.15) unstable; urgency=low

* Support for multiple lists.
* Changed order of menu items.
