[Qpid] in the subject line?
Hi!
This mailing list does not have something like [Qpid] on the subject
line of messages, as most Apache lists have.
Is that by design?
Regards,
Torsten

I think only a very few Apache lists add that tag to the subject
lines. I just checked about 10 of the lists I'm subscribed to and
couldn't find a single one.

It's the default setup that the infrastructure folks gave us.
One reason against doing this is that Apache lists often use a tag
like [VOTE] or [PROPOSAL] or even [VOTE][RESULTS] to call attention to
a particular type of subject. This obviously gets a little more
cluttered with a mailing list tag in every subject.

That works if you want to use inbox rules thich will file stuff for you. I have tried that, but the problem is, I don't look into that folders than and miss a lot. Well, this is personal preferences.
What's even worse: Some projects don't change the reply-to header to point to the list, which is VERY annoying as you hit "reply" and you think you replied to the list, but you replied to the individual sender. Ok, Apache gets this right, fortunately.

Yes, definitely!
The Apache stanadard would be
[Qpid-dev] and [Qpid-commits], probably later [Qpid-user] or [Qpid-users].

I see quite a lot projects don't do this so I filter on the reply-to.
Can the list server add this for us?
Carl.

Because I personally (like many other people I know) am subscribed to a
lot of mailing lists and I get a lot of mails. The [Qpid] or
[Cocoon-user] or whatever lets me immediately recognize that this mail
belongs to that subject, especially if people use quite generic subject
lines such as "Getting a website" or "Compilation problem".
It has been good practice in other Apache projects and in lots of other
projects as well. And IMO it does not hurt.

Torsten

It also helps if you have a noddy mail client that can only do simple
filtering (not using the message headers).
I like to have my list email put in to a folder so it doesn't confuse me
with the mail that is direct to me.
just my 2c worth.

I prefer it without the [Qpid] subject header. I already sort my mail
into folders using the reply-to header. So adding that to the subject
is redundant for me and makes my eyes have to work harder when
scanning threads.
