Hi,

As long as we're on the subject of the mailing list, can I ask a
questions?

The other mailing lists I'm on, including several that I run, are using
Mailman rather than Majordomo, which has a beautiful feature that
prefixes the subject of a message with the name of a list in brackets.
For instance, this message, on Mailman, would have the subject
"[discuss-list] Mailing List Mechanics (was: Spammers Mining..." Among
other things, it makes it very easy to have my mail client sort and
filter messages to my archives, where I sometimes refer back to them,
but mostly just use hard drive space. Of course, it also makes it easier
to identify the subject, as the list name gives it context.

Can Majordomo do this? If so, could the list administrators be convinced
to enable this feature?

Incidently, Mailman will also change people's email addresses so their
not as easy to mine -- by removing the '@' and replacing it with
'--at--' or something like that.

Thank you,

Rob Martin
