Well then people like you can continue to sort based on the list header.
Isn't that easy?

Hear hear. By the way, the list is run on mailman, so it's definitely

Nope. EZMLM.
Did someone HAVE a good reason for why it's not happening? I can live
with a four-character longer subject line.
Yup. Atrocities like this:

Breaks alphabetical sorting, if you like to sort alphabetically at times
(which I do in the event that someone's mail client breaks a thread). And if
I forward that message to you off-list, that should go into your inbox, no?
Heaven help that message, nobody knows where the hell it's going.
I should observe that at least one other list I'm on (the NANOG list) DOES
NOT have the prefix, and there's a lot of confusion with this list for
that reason, since both of you seem to be intent on harping on "SPF IS
BAD" versus "SPF IS HERE".
Why would it make any confusion at all? I honestly do not understand how
they can even find their way into the same folder (it sounds like you're
sorting into folders, I'm not sure though). I have half a dozen lists
dealing with nothing but messaging, and none of them have it and they all
sort fine. They even sorted fine with Outlook and Outlook Express!
