I've been editing my subject lines for sotrage purposes for ages - using a
filter that Roelof helped me put together.

What's the problem? I hit ALT -E a text editor pops up - change the header,
save and it appears back in a folder from which I move it for filing.

Admitedly it would be better if it could judst be edited in place and saved
back whence it came...but... this is THe Bat! and useful additions don't seem
to carry any weight in the development process. But that's an old gripe of
mine.
