There is also no safe way to remove the "[XXX]" stuff. I've asked around on IRC and the common warning is that this will break "Subject:"- lines

Please simply leave the tags alone - IMO all the discussion turns to the
point that the tag removal is both unneccasary and even hazardous in
some cases.

No; I think that the tags should never have been put on the mailing
lists and should not be added to any new emails found without tags.

The nature of opensolaris with a large amount of cross posting makes
the takes unworkable; and if your MUA can't sort or select on sender
then it is broken.

Subject tags are evil.

The subject line is halfway to useless anyway, because most people
on the various opensolaris maillists happily changes the subject of
the message itself without changing the subject line.
