Subject munging will be simple to add, and I can do it.  Stay tuned.

  I have found a certain number of messages are not parsed correctly by the re 
that you are using.  They show up as From: (none) Subj: (none) in the UI

We've recently seen some problems with malformed mails.  We're examining this 
issue (see the email package use thread)

 - but I haven't determined why just yet (though I can see that some part of 
the message is getting stuck with the header by your re.split(r'\n\r?\n', 
messageText, 1) expression.
