Why are you reforming Andrew's subject line? It seemed like a very
sensible subject line.

But your subject lines are too long. Can you find even one person
besides yourself who thinks that your practice of putting an entire
paragraph into a subject line is a sensible email practice compared
to the subject that Andrew Cater used, and you rejected?

I request that you stop using such lengthy subject lines as they
make it hard to quickly determine what any of your emails are
actually about - the primary purpose of the subject header.

Additionally, I would suggest that if your email software can't cope
with the proper threading of emails when their subject line is
changed, that you should pick better software for the purpose of
reading email. There is no shortage of options that can accomplish
the basic task of presenting threads of conversation.

Thanks,
Andy
