Good to know. I haven't yet looked at 2.1 due to lack of time but from the
features of read on the dev list I'm execited about it.

The NNTP_REMOVE_HEADERS and NNTP_REWRITE_DUPLICATE_HEADERS obviously won't
work for what I want but yes, this is along the right lines. Maybe we need a
NNTP_STRIP_LISTNAME option as well? 

  # When set to true the list name will be removed from the subject line

  NNTP_STRIP_LISTNAME = true

It's now that I wish I picked up that python book :)
