Thanks for your comments, Kevin, Stan, and David. I like to keep a prepend, only because it helps some of us keep thingsw organized in less sophisticated devices (my 2-way pager, for instance), and I can easily tell whether my mail filters have missed something (in some instances, I've seen non-list Reply-To: headers, even though the post was definitely made to the list and not to an individual).

So, then, I like the single block idea. [os2wireless]? Additional comments before I set this in stone?

Does anyone have any objection to me abbreviating the subject prepend on this list to OS/2 WUL or OS/2 Wireless? This would have the benefit of leaving more room for visible subjects which wouldn't get truncated by some mail clients.

Apologies in advance if this request seems a bit anal retentive...

My $0.02:

Please don't use "OS/2 WUL".  Why do you have to prepend the subject? The "To:" field already indicates it is the OS/2 Wireless Users list.

Some groups like OS/2 Hardware and OS/2 Users do not prepend the
subject - - and I really don't miss it.

Other Groups prepend with a single [word] such as [InJoy], [VOICENWS],
or [javaos2].  You might choose to conform to that style. Cheers. ----------------
