Since this G prefix was apparently in response to some people who don't

me: I do filter all G-list mail to its own folder. Sometimes I let it build
up for a few days, then to read the dozens that have accumulated, I sort
the new messages by subject to read them threaded. Now I was just doing
that, and after a while I realised I was reading question after question
and no responses. Eventually I worked out that, while my mail client knows
that "Re: my question" is the same subject as "my question", it doesn't if
they've been munged into "[G]: my question" and "[G] Re: my question", as
the "Re:" has been moved from the beginning of the line.
Thanks a lot.
