Removing list tags cleans your index, and is good for you. However
when you followup to such lists, you introduce a title variation, which
might confuse the threading of some mailers. Good for you, potentially
bad for your readers. It's maybe better to avoid detagging subjects for
lists where you contribute.
OTOS I'm not aware of any always-good solution to the list tags
problem. Something like a $display_filter acting on index but not on
replies would surely be good, but it doesn't exist yet.
Bye! Alain.
