Without a tag, it's fully alphabetic. So the other day when I was looking for thread "Joe Jobbing countermeasures" in a Postfix discussion list, I sorted the 40,000 messages by subject, hit the [J] key, and I was there. Rather than having to scroll through looking for [Postfix-Users]Joe Jobbing.
That's why I like it. I can't do that with lists that prepend a [tag]. Besides, I subscribe public folders to most lists, and the others I just make the rules by TO: or CC: and they *always* work. And I can go into a folder with 50k messages and jump to the thread I want in <2 seconds. -----Original Message----- From: Jeff Koch [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, February 06, 2004 10:29 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Subject tag poll results I really don't understand why anyone would object to adding [SA] to the beginning of the subject line.
