[SUMMARY] Request to change Subject line in this list

From: Paramasivam, Meenakshisundaram (mparamas@iupui.edu)
Date: Wed Jul 26 2000 - 11:33:56 CDT


I took a lot of heat on this one.

Summary:
        
        Bottom line: Use a filter, or a proper email client.
                   
In MS Outlook 2000 client (the only client allowed on our site) I used
"rules wizzard" and took care the problem.

>From the maintainer of the list, John DiMarco <jdd@cs.toronto.edu>, himself:

"the information you desire (that distinguishes sun-managers mail
from other mail) is already in the From line; it shouldn't really be
necessary
to put that information in the subject line, too. If you want to sort
your mail, use a mail client that supports that sort of thing (or preprocess
your mail using procmail or equivalent). If that doesn't work for you, set
up another email account somewhere (e.g. hotmail) and read your sun-managers
mail from there."

-----Original Message-----
To: MAINTAINER OF THIS LIST (OTHERS PLEASE DO NOT RESPOND)

As I am not sure who exactly maintains this list, I regret to post this to
entire list.

I request adding "[SUNMGR]" in front the subject of each mail by default. As
of now, I am getting a lot of email messages, and I would like to quickly
distinguish local messages from the ones off of this list. I would like to
read our local messages first.

HP Admin list prepends "[HPADM]" by default in the Subject line to all
messages (including [SUMMARY] ones).

Again, I apologize for this broadcast. I would leave the decision to who
maintains this list. PLEASE let us not generate a storm out of this.
