I think the point of having a configurable default is so that we don't have to change it when prompted. I'd rather not have to type "Re: my custom non-subject reply subject" or whatever every time I reply to a message which had no subject. > Further, if you're going to be picky about the subject, it should > really reflect the subject of the message, not be just some generic > equivalent of "you forgot the subject". It hardly seems worth making > this configurable. By that logic, why do we have the "Re: your mail" hard-coded default at all?
