Please -- no.  It ruins any chance of keeping messages together because a
reply to [Vanagon] foo will be headed [Vanagon] Re: [Vanagon] foo, which
the mailer doesn't recognize as the same subject.  You can easily filter
listmail based on some other characteristic, such as the fact that it comes
from vanagon@gerry.vanagon.com.
