The thing that is most difficult for me is the fact that I almost never can read the entire subject header. Often I get to read only the first word. Tags will make that worse. I hope the switch from [Orgmode] to [O] will make things easier for you. Since we now have a single letter [O] fo

Hi, the same discussion was started a few month ago. Basically, at that time there was quickly some argument to drop [Orgmode] tag in the subject and try to reduce the tags to a certain amount. Basically, I can't see any logical reason to keep [Orgmode] since this is a org-mode list. Esp., nowad

I think that if it was kept as a single list the use of tags could allow (as long as people respect the tags) to filter and read only the types of threads they want to use. If we split the lists I would tag both with the same tag in my gmail box and read them all together, so it wouldn't really ap
