If "that purpose" means automated filtering of email, yes, the headers work

But there are other reasons for subject tagging. Personally, I do not like
filtering my mail into separate spools as it comes in, because, since I'm a
busy person, I will never go and dig through them. It has to come into my
main spool or I will never see it. Lists with subject-tagged messages stand
out easily in my (rather large) inbound mail volume.
That's why I prefer it too, it stands out and I easily know which list it's from.
Can you
pass along a comment requesting the subject have the name of the
list appended to it? It'd help with sorting. ;)
Does anyone else want that, or is it just me?
There's probably more people that feel that way, but there are headers in
list messages to that purpose. This has come up in the past, and I don't
give you much of a chance it'll happen.
And honestly, of the 25 or so mailing lists that I'm on, this is the ONLY
ONE that doesn't do subject tagging.
I'm on less?but that still holds true for me.
