Re[2]: Memo function (was: Changing received message subject)
Hi Dwight, I noticed this same thing a couple of days ago and almost e-mailed the list last night when this thread started up... but then didn't because I figured this was normal behavior. However, I would really like it to change all my folders without me having to go in and edit them... and when I exited/restarted the only folders that had the memo field were the original ones that I had already edited. So, it worked for you but not me!!

Changing received message subject
I've got a load of archive messages from a mailing list and they all have the subject Re: your command request which isn't very helpful! Is there a way of changing the subject of a received message, other than redirecting the message to myself and changing it then? They are digests about half a meg each so this isn't ideal! Thanks!
