Re: The Future

[Jim Ozolins <j_ozolins@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

If I could offer a suggestion, it is just that all of the other email lists 
I belong to attach a list name (like [PONCHO]) at the start of each email's 
subject line, allowing me to automatically sort these messages into a 
dedicated folder. This list doesn't do that, and as a result, I have to pick 
the Mopar messages out of my Junk Mail folder, since I don't have 
everybody's email address in my Contacts list.

If there could be something like that in the next generation of this list, 
it would be great, as far as I am concerned.

I'm curious whether anybody else would prefer that.

thanks!
