However, doing this defeats the purpose of a mailing list archive,
and prompts unnecessary repetition of help requests for an issue that
may have been "discussed to death" just five days prior. Again, the
[SOLVED] tag is great on a forum, where you can quickly scan for that
topic that you know has a solution. However, on a mailing list it
only serves to create confusion, separation of problem and solution,
and exasperation on behalf of the searcher when viewing the issue on a
search engine or in the archives.

I just wanted to point out that putting SOLVED on a mailing list subject
line has been SOP since the dawn of mailing lists on ARPANet
