Request AGAIN
Now I have joined more than one of these Mac lists including "BUY" and  
"FIX" (which is this one) and because there is no Header in the subject line I  
have to open every e mail and look at it to SEE where to save it (in the 
"FIX"  folder or the "BUY" folder).
 
Virtually every single Yahoo group in existence has an identifier in the  
subject line before the message (and other entities follow that standard as 
well  such as google groups)
 
Why is this such a difficulty to aide the receiver of these messages to  
have something, ANYTHING commencing the subject line so one knows where to 
SAVE  the messages for later reading.
 
What's wrong with an of these:
 
1.  [Vintage Macs]
2.  [Fix Macs]
 
???
 
Either of those identifiers takes very little space and the brackets (which 
 is the accepted practice) set it off from the message.
 
What is this such a stumbling block?  Why would 10,000 Groups follow  this 
convention if it wasn't the right thing to do?
 
Here's a sample of the emails I get on this address, "Digest statement is  
the "message"" and there are examples of actual messages near the bottom.  
Picture my e mail client window all listed down like this and then these 
repair  list e mails with no identifier.....very HARD to figure out which is 
which and  where to save them
