assisting in renaming thread subjects



Hi,

I am on quite a few mailing lists. Often, the topic being
discussed in a thread morphs, but lazy posters do not change the
subject header accordingly.

It seems to be a net-wide convention to use the format:

Subject : Some topic

becomes

Subject : A new topic (Was: Some topic)

Does Mutt support a command to manage this automatically?
Something like an 'update-subject' command to automatically add
the "(Was:" ... ")" strings to subject headers when the user
enters an updated subject.

If it doesn't, perhaps someone could suggest a simple solution to
do this.

Thanks,
