I don't think it's a religious war: I think it's long since been demonstrated that RFC 2919 (and 2369) including List-Id are not only good ideas, but best practices, and that subject-line tags should be deprecated/avoided/discouraged, because they're just a kludge. That is, this is an issue of technical merit, not arbitrary whim. So instead of bringing back the obsolete idea of subject-line tags, we should instead be encouraging (a) all IETF lists *not* to use them, but to use List-Id et.al. instead (b) all (relevant) mail software providers to support them and (c) all (relevant) mail server providers to support them. These mechanisms neatly solve a number of problems, and that better positions everyone to tackle those that remain. ---rsk _______________________________________________ Ietf mailing list Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
