I have nothing against doing this, and it may be better if it's
explicit in the subject line (although some people don't like that),
but most mail readers (any decent one, at least :-) should be able to
sort/filter things based on other, already existing, headers in the
message.  For example, it looks like you're using Eudora, and I think
it has that capability (I don't use it, so I can't give the details).
