We really haven't given this much thought since shortly after the
lists were started. Most of the original subscribers felt that it was
not necessary, and took up valuable space in the Subject field.

Personally, I don't really care one way or the other, but it seems to
me that if you set up your filters right, you don't need the in your
face, constant reminder of what list the message belongs to by
including TBBETA or TBUDL in the Subject.

If you feel strongly enough about it, post a message to the list
asking for the opinions of other members. PLEASE make sure that you
tell them to send the "vote" to you and not the list. (I did say
*you*!)

If you would then compile the list with the names of those who support
you, then we'll drag them out into the street and shoot them! <grin>
just kidding. No, really, compile a list of people who also want this
and then send it to me.

Thanks.
