+1 to stuff like "[CfP]" (and also "[RFP]," etc) added to Subject lines. +100 to people refraining from submitting bogusly long [CfP]'s. These simply AREN'T necessary! [CfP] emails should be limited to very brief summaries of the CfP --- possibly "structured," but a very few elements, and a LINK. There's this thing called "The Web" with which the bogusly-long content can be presented in full, and "linked"-to by this thing called a "URL..." ALSO: Phil, the max size of allowed emails can be set, to something like 10K bytes. That will stop all sorts of badness, including overly-copied discussions threads. -- John S.
