I have this in my .vm (setq vm-subject-ignored-prefix "^\\(\\(re\\|sv\\|aw\\): *\\)+") I don't often use commands that are affected by this. But I tested to mark by subject, and it found both those having SV: and those having RE: before the subject proper. Just a thought: you haven't forgotten to double the backslashes when setting it in the lisp code?
