I'm subscribed to a mailing list which causes mutt problems with
threading. This is because:

- lots of the users use dumb mailers which don't add In-Reply-To or
  References headers, and
- the list software adds a [TAG] to the start of the subject (and removes
  it from any other position in the list).

Since there's no proper threading info and the subjects have been
multilated, mutt is unable to thread the list correctly.

Is it possible to tell mutt to ignore the tag? I looked through the manual
but I couldn't see it.

I'm using exim's built in filters to sort my mail into folders. I developed
a complicated system where exim pipes the incoming mail through a perl
script to remove the tag and through the filter again to remove it,
but it's a bit ugly.


thanks
Hamish
