Re: ADDING [deb...] TO SUBJECTS

[David Wright <d.wright@open.ac.uk>]

The Colos list adds these tags, and the consequence is that
the fallback subject threading fails dismally, and most of the
contributors seem to use broken mailers that can't get their
references or in-reply-to headers right. If it wasn't fairly
quiet, I'd have to unsubscribe.

I can't recall any of these failing at all:

:0:
* ^X-Mailing-List:.*debian-announce@lists.debian.org>
Qannounce1494

:0:
* ^X-Mailing-List:.*debian-changes@lists.debian.org>
Qchanges1494

:0:
* ^X-Mailing-List:.*@lists.debian.org>
Debian1494
