Please no. If we don't have the numbers, what's the point to having
redundant information all over the headers? We already have "to" and
"reply-to" that clearly show this is ruby-talk.

Of course, I am only thinking of my case, where I use the headers to sort
mail into "folders". The only time I can think the list name in subject is
useful is with a single inbox-- are there people who actually survive
mailing list traffic that way?

Time for a second vote! <grin/>
