I do not support this and would actively block it from becoming a Policy. Using codes in a human-readable area (the subject line) is not user-friendly. The words used in the subject are usually a good enough indication of what it's about and whether it would be be interested to you. For example, the word "review" is good enough to indicate a message is reviewing something. This is intuitive for authors and already widely used on public-html. It is more user-friendly to read "review" than to read "R|" and look this up against a glossary of codes. As long as people use descriptive subject lines of short or moderate length, that is fine for me. This is what Participants are already doing, happily. :-) -- Ben 'Cerbera' Millard Collections of Interesting Data Tables <http://sitesurgeon.co.uk/tables/readme.html>
