RE: ADMIN: Another mailing list suggestion



Gentlepeople,

In fact, I do *NOT* get that "To:" information.  Instead, my company's
mail gateway translates things such that my "To:" line explicitly says
"To: jmelton" (which identifies my login ID).

The recent suggestion from katz@sabine.acs.psu.edu to change the Subject:
line to add a mailing list identifier (his example was to add "[tp]", but
anything along that line would be similar) would be much preferable to me. 

Thanks,
