Several server packages let you insert a subject prefix. Majordomo2 lets
you insert any string you like, and automatically takes out duplicates
like the one you showed. Responding to something with a prefix will NOT
produce another copy of the prefix. I think Listserv is the same way.

Instead of removing the feature, submit a bug report for the duplicate
occurrances of the prefix.
