Yes, please... *every* other maillist I
subscribe to has [mailistname]
prepended to the "Subject" field...except for Classiccmp, which
generates three times the message traffic the others do combined...
Please DON'T do this. Only about 5% of the mailing lists I subscribe
to have this, and it annoys the heck out of me because it just keeps
me from seeing that many characters of the subject line in the summary
view.
I'd like to agree with Eric, and also to remind people that this has been
tried on the CLASSICCMP mailing lists, and it annoyed the H*** out of so
many of us that it was stopped.
One major problem I have with it is that it prevents the email software I
use from being able todproperly sort the messages!
