Random thought...
As shown below, this would allow a subject line to be entered
Subject: message to the list [seemunky]
Is this a flaw? It's not really a prefix anymore... it should perhaps be
placed immediately after the Re/FW indicators, before the actual subject -
if we're talking cosmetic.
Another thought, should it remove the existing prefix in this case? What
if the prefix appears multiple times?
