These spurious [ANNOUNCEMENT] subjects seem to be popping up from a
number of people. It seems unlikely that they are all doing this
intentionally (though I agree the quoting must be a mailer problem.) I
wonder if there isn't some way the cygwin.com mailman installation
sometimes gets confused and modifies the subject line.
Oliver, I don't suppose you have a copy of one of your messages in your
Sent folder that you could send along with full headers to show that it
didn't have an [ANNOUNCEMENT] subject when it left your machine?
