	Most consoles can only display 80 characters, and "[Sheflug -
Sheffield Linux User's Group]" has around 40, add name and data and all
that, and what's left for your subject? Actually, I wouldn't mind if you
were to put it *after* the subject proper. All I'm saying is that us
console users are left with a useless subject (we know it's a sheflug
message, procmail takes care of that, but what on Earth is it about!?).
Besides, apart from signature and all that, you have an X-list tag in
every message... And dial up users have to pay for that X-)!!!!

	Regards,
	José
