It has nothing to do with Outlook, it's the way EVERY single other program out there 
does it.

It's only slightly better than tagging -reply onto the END of the Subject, like some

Well you could always turn it on if you wanted it, but for new users, it's not good 
for the reason that:

And it breaks sorting for other folks who aren't using TB

And then you get "Re: Re[2] whatever"

But when someone else replied to a numbered Re: then you get multiples.

Be that as it may, and I'm not debating it at all, changing the Reply string is not 
good for cooperating with other mailers.
