It bothers them because their mail client relies somehow on the message
subject to do threading instead of using the correct identifiers within
the source of the message.  I understand their gripe, but I tend to
agree 100% with you.  Good subject lines are better than crappy ones. :)

However, they could gripe about what I do.  When I want to send a new
message to PLUG.  I generally will open an existing one and change the
subject and send.  This is bad etiquette, but its my way of protesting
the hideous domain name we refuse to address=20
PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us is just nasty. ;)
