I'm against it too. We use [] tags at work to indicate the relevant project for an email thread, but with this mailing list gmail can use the 'gnucash-user' email to tag all mails from this thread. I would assume that many other email clients also offer such facilities. -- __̴ı ̡͌l̡̡̡ ̡͌l̡*̡̡

if I wished simply code a pre-processing of the incoming gnucash-user emails to add a '[GNC]' to the subject if it wasn't there, probably would take me a few seconds to do so, I just never thought to do so before. Likewise, you could write a pre-process that removes the '[GNC]' on your incoming
