Hi,
I am slightly plagued by email subjects which accumulate all sorts of
crud before the 'real' subject. Thus, if I send an email with the
following subject:
[ZEDAT HPC] Your HPC access has been set up
the user may, several months later, ask for some software to be
installed with the following subject:
Re: [ZEDAT HPC] Your HPC access has been set up
My setup does not add further 'Re's if the subject starts with one, but
the mail clients of other colleagues and of the user may do, so that at
some point the subject becomes something like:
Re: AW: Re: Aw: Re: Re: [ZEDAT HPC] Your HPC access has been set up
'AW' and 'Aw' being German versions of 'Re'.
Is there anything like the gnus-simplify-subject-functions that can be
applied to subjects in the message buffer when I reply?
Cheers,
Loris
PS Suggestions about how to get people to use subjects which actually
correspond to the contents of mails also welcome ;-)
