[Mailman-Users] The "right" way to reply to a mailing list / Re:

[A.K. Eyma]

While in the topic of replying, why does mailman put the
"Re:" before the [listname]? Or rather inserts the list
name after the Re: ? (For you send it out as "Re: The right way")

It likely is my odd taste, and perhaps most software does it
thusly, but IMHO it looks bad optically and makes no sense. ;)

Having all mail of a list come in with [listname] first in
each subject line is more tidy. In that way you would
differentiate at one glance in your inbox between

Re: [Mailman-Users] The "right" way

for responses that have been sent offlist to you

and

[Mailman-Users] Re: The "right" way

for responses that have been sent onlist, i.e. via the list.

[] is the list's 'stamp' on mails, why insert it after Re:?

I am making sense, really! ;))
