Maybe he just wants to organize the messages from different lists in 
different folders, automatically.

Guto.

I have prepared a complete index of all possible topics on the Csound list.
Would all of you please include exactly the relevant topics from my list on
the subject line of your emails, so that my automated system can read and
respond without my ever having to actually read communications from other
human beings.

If that proves too inconvenient, just send your messages as you always
have. Thank you.

These comments are not really fair.  Some people's mailers show the
mail as being from the "from" mail header some from the "from:" mail
header and some from the "sender:" mail header, and often these peoples
have no control over which header is used.  If your mail reader lists
by "sender:", then all mail from the csound list will seem to be fron
"owner-outgoing...", if it lists by "from:" (as does mine), it will
seem to be from the person that posted the mail and just get mixed in
with all the other mail, and naive mail users may not be able to
determine whence it came.
