When you add something to the subject, and this is a good idea, *please*
leave the [moderated] or [users] tag in place. Some (many?) of us that
do assist unsubscribed posts do not wish to wade through each header to
find out if the post is subscribed or not. The [users] and [moderated]
tags flag that it is from an unsubscribed user, so it is easy to then cc
the poster without having to look at the headers.
