Steve,
Good habit! But in Mike Kinnear's case he was actually trying to send a listserve "command" and sent it to the list instead of the listserve. Even then I usually include the command as the Subject just so *I* have a clue later. No doubt you've noticed the minor flood of listserve commands (including SIGNOFF and LOGOFF) being sent to the discussion list instead of the listserve address itself - probably few of us enter listserve commands on a regular basis so it's easy to explain the high tide.
But the idea that a "Subject:" be required or the note be returned with an explanatory message is a good one. No doubt in Dan's copious free time he'll look right into that. Now if he could programmatically confirm that the subject and the note text match , and make sense for subsequent searching... :-)

Hello. Could you guys (and gals) please include subject lines? I've made it a habit, for a long time now, not to open any email that doesn't have a subject line.
Mr. Moderator, is there a way you can require that the poster have a subject line and if not, don't post the message?
Thanks,
Steve G.
