May I remind that the poster does not send the [list-tag]? The message is auto-munged in transit by the list server. Eliding the interloper merely restores end-to-end veracity. It is well worth avoiding ending up with the header line: Subject: "[list-tag] Re: [list-tag] Re: [list-tag] Some Guff" after a reply or two. In any event, the "formail -i" archives the incoming subject as the header line "Old-Subject", so it's still there for hysterical raisins, should we fear offending the list admin's feelings. ( -I if you don't care) Mind you, badgering the list admin till the bad practice is stopped can also work, and for my money, it is a good solution. For every other case, I can only share your view.

This was not my doing, but she managed to wipe her windows and install it accidentally when someone handed her the live CD to deal with a windows problem she was having. The computer asked her to do things. So she did. - Seen on luv-main, in slightly longer form.
