Subject: Re: the [ruby-talk] is gone?


I'm seconding this. The simple prefix "[ruby-talk]" is an wonderfully
simple rule set for this (human) agent. I only wish more lists would signal
where they're coming from through the subject line. (Program my mail
client? - You must be joking.)

I would definitely prefer having [ruby-talk] at the beginning, rather
than nothing.  Isn't this pretty standard (without numbers)?  For
example, Yahoo groups put [groupname] at the beginning of subject lines
in the email copies of posts.
