Re: Suggestion to group

Are we done beating up the new guy for making a request? :-)

He's only asking if it can be done. I'm sure he (like many of us) have already done one or more of the steps mentioned by those who have replied.

However, the point is, most other mailing lists have gone forth and done what he is requesting. Some mailing lists related to this group like Subclipse and TortoiseSVN have done this already. Personally, I don't think adding [subversion-users] to the beginning of an e-mail subject line is to much to ask for. I know it would help with those few messages that someone only replied back to the user and ended up in another folder only to be found two days later. Besides, some of us are stuck with lousy corporate e-mail systems like Novell GroupWise. Having an easier way to even identify an e-mail visually from our list would be nice.

The best responses to this posting should be concerning if you are in vocal minority or the majority in wanting this request as well? Bike shedding the 'how to do this' is not the best response as it doesn't have much to do with Subversion anyway.
