Howdy All,
Anybody have an opinion on the necessity of continuing to have [Zope] in the subject header? I like it. Actually it makes managing the list manually (as I do with any list I'm following activly) easier: To save it to it's folder, I just have to select upon Subject: substring [Zope]. :)
Originally in the switch from Bobo-list to Zope-list and duplication of messages it served a good purpose. The Bobo-list didn't and doesn't have an equivalent [Bobo] prefix.
Most people have migrated to the Zope and the Bobo list is greatly reduced.
I have seen messages such as: RE: [Zope] - RE: [Zope] -...
"[Zope] - " minimally consumes 9 characters. Add a "re: " and your upto 13. This has caused some subjects to be cut.
Is it still desired? My vote is for it :)
