Re: python list name in subject

2017-08-22 Thread Abdur-Rahmaan Janhangeer 
ah thanks for the tip about me filtering them

thought the community liked core python style (mail lists where python dev
talk, discuss ideas,i.e. the ones where guido replies etc)

anyways thanks all

That's non-standard. The standard place for that information is the
“List-Id” field https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2919>.

> hence i can at a glance tell which mail belongs to which list.

Set up a filter on the specific value of the “List-Id” field, which is
set by any standards-conformant mailing list software.

Presto, you get any organisation you like based on that information; and
the rest of us don't get the Subject field cluttered.

Better yet, put it in its own folder.

Well, that pretty much disqualifies google groups. :-)

Checking mailing list headers...yep, the "forum-of-origin" type hint
is already present in standards-compliant fashion defined by
RFC4021[1]:

List-Id: General discussion list for the Python programming language
 
List-Unsubscribe: ,
 
List-Archive: 
List-Post: 
List-Help: 
List-Subscribe: ,
 

Just need a mail client that knows about standards and isn't
fettered. ;-)

Although, considering that the BDFL has now made type-hints
an official part of the language, a "forum-of-origin" type-
hint, may be more Pythonic than we care to realize. 

Hmm...

Please don't. It wastes space which is better used on the subject.  If
you want the mailing list prepended, then configure procmail (or
whatever) to do it for you.
