Yes, this is what I understood. Onelist does this for all of its lists. This
gives
the reader the option to sort by subject. If I have 500 messages and I sort by
subject I can quickly scan past the servlet messages or the RMI messages (for
that
group) etc and look only at messages from co-workers, bosses, etc that I need to
deal with more quickly. Ideally no one here would have to do anything
differently -
just have the list server do an automatic insert. It is a fairly common
practice
among list servers and sure makes it easier on the reciepients.
