why does anyone need extra subject tagging to filter ML's messages?
i generally just sort them by "to" or "cc" containing: "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" (for this ML)
works like a charm on any ML i've subscribed.
is it that hard?

I belong to several mailing lists that give me personally the choice to turn on subject tagging or leave it off. Perhaps the listserver for this list could be set up the same way. Personally, I pretty much need this option, since I use Outlook Depress to read mail, and it has, um, "rather poor" header filtering capabilities. Other people that can filter on X- headers might not want or need the option.
Another option might be to insure that the mail from the list claims to be from the list, rather than directly from the poster. The would let me filter on the From: header.

Subject: Subject tag poll results
OK, the results are in...
from the web, we have:
No, but if you must put [SAusers] at start of line 22.41 % (13) No, but if you must put [SAusers] at end of line 25.86 % (15) Yes, I prefer [SAusers] at start of line 41.38 % (24) Yes, I prefer [SAusers] at end of line 0.00 % (0) I don't care 6.90 % (4) Prepare for Armageddon! 3.45 % (2)
and by mail, we have:
No: 9 Yes: 1
that means a total of
No: 22 Yes: 25
so the yesses have it. (damn!)
