This is new for Ver 1.8c of LISTSERV.
 
You set this like the other personal options mail/nomail,
digest/nodigest,ack/noack, etc.
 
Send to your List Command Address:  LISTSERV@your_host
the one line msg:                   SET listname SUBJECTHDR
 
This will insert your List's short-name in the Subject: line of all mail
sent by LISTSERV.  Thus, this msg Subject: would look like
  Subject: Re: [LSTOWN-L] Adding name of list to Subject line
 
If you have a long listname and want to specify a shorter 'name' (e.g.
LSTOWN) then you use the Subject-Tag= LSTOWN Keyword.  Do not add the []
brackets, LISTSERV will do that for you.  Also, LISTSERV handles this
nicely so that you do not get multiple tags like you sometimes get with
multiple Re: Re: xxxx.
 
To set this for all current users, the List Owner can send a similar msg:
  QUIET SET listname SUBJECTHDR FOR *@*
 
And also for all new subscribers by adding it to your List header:
 * Default-Options= SubjectHdr, (option2), (option3), etc...
