Hi
I have a function, most likely based on ancient code (based on 2.35)
that inserts a word or expression in the subject line, according to a
special field in the BBDB entry.
That code works nicely, however if I use it to reply to a message, that
already has a subject then that expression is added at the end of the
subject line not at the beginning.
The relevant code is the line
(message-carefully-insert-headers (list (cons 'Subject signame)))
So cons seems her the culprit. Any idea how to modify the line above to
have the expression inserted always at the beginning?
I had a look at message-change-subject. That function however is rather
complicated.
So if somebody comes up with a simple solution I would appreciate it
Thanks
Uwe Brauer

(defun message-insert-subject-first (word)
(interactive "sword: ")
(when word
(message-goto-subject)
(message-beginning-of-line)
(insert word) ))
