That's not actually true. The RFC puts no constraint on the way
Subject: header content is used. Your sysadmin shouldn't have any
cause to complain about the content of the message body or pre-amble
unless it really does contravene the RFCs. "Re[n]" does not contravene
any.

It is not a specification. It may have come from FIDO, but it's very
"Bat!". I actually turned it off completely myself very early on and
have left it that way. All of my templates use the %SINGLERE macro to
do that.
