Actually, this kind of behaviour is called a "design choice". You can
make a case for doing it one way, and you can make a case for doing it
the other way ("Hey, I never put NO SUBJECT in my message!") I was
waiting to see how many people agreed/disagreed.

Likewise, I tend to have more respect for suggestions coming from people
who don't scream BUG at the first opportunity and who don't assume that
LISTSERV developers are a bunch of idiots whose main concern is to avoid
admitting that they may have forgotten to write 2 lines of code.
