Just because L-Soft does not answer every single message does not mean
that they are ignored. If we answered every message on this list we would
have a lot less time to actually implement the requests.

It is not trivial to implement at all unless we force ALL subscribers to
receive the modified subject, which would result in more complaints than
we have today, but we have decided to include it in 1.8c anyway. We did
not say anything because we are SUPER VERY BUSY right now with an ISP
change that required 51 tickets just to get the first packet flowing
through, half of BITNET disconnecting and wanting to migrate to TCP/IP
right now, as opposed to 3 weeks ago, the usual onslaught of academic
sites that have some leftover money that will be gone unless it is spent
before 06/30 and that want to buy something IMMEDIATELY, but not before
talking to a senior technical person to make sure it will fit their
hardware and so on, and a lot of other things I won't bore you about
and/or that you will read about soon enough. We don't want to have 20
people asking when it will be available on a daily basis. We barely have
the time to read our mail. Thank you.
