The disadvantadge to removing [XFree86] from the subject is that those people who do not use procmail to sort their mail will have to read the message to know where it came from. I prefer to read my messages in one inbox and use the subject line to figure out whether to read a particular message now or later.
That said, most of the lists I am on lack a subject listname and it would not make a big difference to me one way or another. -Don _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
