Hi,

Yes, I mean the Subject prefix. There already is an option (if I'm
correct) if you want to add it to newsgroup messages or not. I think if
you don't want to add it, you probably want to remove it if it's there.
Otherwise, the results are really inconsistent, with the tag not being
there for the opening post (if it's posted via the newsgroup), not being
there for any newsgroup replies, but it's there for mailing list
replies, and all replies to those.
