I personally find the Prefix VERY useful, as explained in another post, but I could if I wished simply code a pre-processing of the incoming gnucash-user emails to add a '[GNC]' to the subject if it wasn't there, probably would take me a few seconds to do so, I just never thought to do so before. Likewise, you could write a pre-process that removes the '[GNC]' on your incoming emails if you so desired, assuming your email client supports it. IMHO, this is NOT a real issue to get aggravated about. Anyway, in my 'just a user' opinion this also isn't really the way to go about it. A technical mailing list is not a democratic institution. Take it up with the mailing list administrator directly, off list, and leave the list for actual GnuCash discussions. Just my 2 and 3/4 cents (inflation, you know...)
