Hello,

today, a discussion started on the certification mailing list whether we
want to get rid of those mailing list prefixes in the subject, like
[libreoffice-announce], [libreoffice-conference] or [tdf-discuss].

This would be helpful in several ways, like DKIM and other e-mail signing
tools don't break, plus it looks much better in the mail overview.

However, this depends on how people filter their e-mail. Filtering on the
subject line is a *real* bad idea, rather use the List-Post or List-Id
header. However, some mail clients don't support that.

So, my question is:
Are there mailing lists where we could get rid of this prefix? What do
people think?

I would imagine that for the users list, removing the prefix is a bad idea,
while for other lists, it could work pretty well.

Thoughts?

I use gmail. I use the prefixes for filtering mail. I would not like
for all of them to be removed, because they are so useful. It is
unfortunate that the "libreoffice-xxx" prefixes are so long. For some
lists I don't care, because I do not filter them.
