put bluntly, we all know the mail tools we're using to process these mails, and the mails could be a damn sight more tractable for tools than they are.

ever tried sorting drafts by subject line?

that old draft-random-group-something-KEYWORD-version is really suckful for something as basic as .. sorting.

gonna change that religion? I don't think so.

PS can all the emacs users please not pile on with 'works for me (smirk)))))" responses, I know you LISPoids have this dealt with. Some of us lost enough braincells to use GUI, and the GUI really don't like IETF Draft subjectlines. They mask almost all the useful bits, and expose almost all the useless bits.
