RE: Suggestion

[Steve Homer <shomer fmco com>]

Personally I'd love it if (not inconveniencing others) that you could do
this, as I use MS Outlook (not my choice!) and it fails to filter ~50% of
messages into the correct folder which causes all kinds of problems at work
(with RAS and whathaveyou...)

But if it is a seriously difficult issue for the mailing-list-maintainer
then forget it.

Cheers,
Steve.

I do filter mail, and I could personally care less if there was a [Gnome]
in the subject line or not. If it helps somebody, why not do it?
