Nathan is correct that it is the software, which, as far as the school is concerned, is fixed in stone. However, what I thought Michael was suggesting was that people manually remove the re's before they send the message.

The fault is in the PEN-L listserv software; it is the only list in which I participate that adds an extra "re:" when I reply to a post. It has to do with the fact that every message header is automatically changed by the software with a new number that eliminates the re: in front of the previous header, thereby fooling software into thinking the header subject has changed. I wish Michael would look into having the numbering of posts removed for that reason, but it is too valuable then we will just have to live with the multiplying re:s.
