Can we lose the [RHL] prefix? It's silly, clutters up the list of

Re: This silly [RHL] nonsense.
It's really six of one or half-dozen of another. Either the folks that want it can procmail it in (why not just procmail to a different folder???) or those that don't want it can procmail it out. I had added "[RHL] " cuz I thought six extra letters on the subject line would not bother anyone. Boy was I wrong! I should have known better and just left the prefix off (as it was when the list was under smartlist). So bottom line, regardless of the fact that I personally preferred the prefix, I took it off and let's not start a war over it! End of story. BTW, for those that care, there is also the "X-BeenThere: [EMAIL PROTECTED]" header that gets added by default by Mailman, as well as an "X-Loop: [EMAIL PROTECTED]" which we added to each message (not via Mailman though). On a lighter note, I'm personally glad to have the list under Mailman. Just a few more lists to go and I decomission the old box!!!

Re: This silly [RHL] nonsense.
Since I use procmail to automatically file list mail, I don't need the prefixes, either. Here's what I use to get rid of them: In .procmailrc :0:redhat-digest.lock * ^TO.*redhat-list@ * ^Subject: Redhat-list digest, Vol |sed -f .rhl.sed redhat-digest And .rhl.sed, which resides in the same directory as my auto-filed mail, has 1d /^Subject: *\[RHL] */s//Subject: / /^Subject: *\([Rr][Ee]\): \[RHL] */s//Subject: \1: / The 1d takes off the "From " line, which makes it possible for for nn to recognize the file as a digest and do some rudimentary sort on the messages inside.

Re: This silly [RHL] nonsense.
I prefer the prefix also. I receive between 3000 and 4000 letters a week. When someone I don't know posts a response directly to me about a question I posted to the list it helps to see the [RHL] in the subject line so I know it's not a spam letter. A procmail filter won't fix this unless the reply is sent to the list as well. Glen On Thu, 3 Aug 2000, Peter Kiem wrote: Jason Costomiris [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: Can we lose the [RHL] prefix?

You can find out where your email comes from if you know how to apply your email filters properly. You can use procmail or some filter program in Kmail whatever.
