I do that on every list that I run. It's a great help for those who don't have such great software as Gnus and Procmail, and if you have such cool software then getting rid of the tags is trivial. They're a big help if you don't have the software and they can go away if you do have it. Why is that so annoying?

For Procmail users, I use the following in a recipe: :0 h SUBJECT=| formail -xSubject: | sed 's/TAG: //' :0 fhw |formail -i "Subject:" -a "Subject:$SUBJECT" Procmail gurus will probably find subtle weird locking errors, but it's always worked for me. - J<
