There is no good solution here, because OE is so limited.  IIRC, you can
filter on From:, To:, Subject: and the body, so we have to use one of those
or the notation is useless.  To: and From: are arguably less intrusive than
Subject:, so I like that we offer two options.  I doubt many people notate
ham, so as long as there are no false positives (a reasonable assumption),
and few unsure hams (likely for many people I think), then changing the To:
doesn't hurt.

I wouldn't have a problem with changing it so that it matched whatever the
RFC says (maybe classification at spambayes or something like that which is an
invalid address, but valid formatting?).
