I would not say that either, but with Mark saying "Exactly" to Robert's
statement that a body change would be a no-op, I'd like to be perfectly
clear on what changes are actually desired, before I go touching the
email pipeline.

Mark, could you please accept or modify the proposed changes to subject
line and body?  You're the only one who have had direct contact with the
people who experienced an issue, so you have more information than the
rest of us about what the actual perception was.
