Who is the moderator of this list?

This may be true of your mail feed, but it is an artifact of the set of lists you are subscribed to. Some 73% of the lists I've had traffic something like 95% percent of my list traffic by message count. (That's assuming all the lists I'm on generate a List-Id: header, which to a pretty good approximation is true.) If this is admitted as a reason (and I see no reason it shouldn't be), we kinda have to counterbalance it by the people who just plain DISLIKE it. Such as, me and at least one other person who's spoken up. In any case, it's all moot except to the extent that Jay cares what we think, and as far as I can recall he hasn't weighed in this time around, so I see no reason to think it's likely to change. You wrote that procmail is difficult for you to use. So I'll make this offer: if you want, I'll configure my own system to (a) make the Subject: header change and (b) remail the result to you. It'd mean your cctalk mail stream will be behind my filtering, and may get delayed if/when my mailsystem is being slow or is off the air - if the list will let me, I can subscribe a separate address which has the filtering bits that are easy to turn off turned off, which will reduce that but not eliminate it. And it means that unsubs and option changes and the like might need to go through me, which would delay them if I'm incommunicado for any reason. But the resulting mail _will_ have the Subject: marker. /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML mouse at rodents-montreal.org / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B
