Just a friday observation. Being with four forums, I usually have over a 
hundred emails a day, and may be several hundred plus in my inbox to 
sort. As you know, with Mozilla or any program at the top you can click 
date, subject, sender,ets to organise them in those groups.
I have noticed our forums put their names at front of the actual 
subject. So, if there are 125 emails arriving from tech-assist with 
subject line entries from Apples to Zebras, they ALL are in one subject 
group since the first word would be ""T" for "Tech-assist" Not in 
subject alphabetically. Just an observation, not a gripe.
But when one is sorting out two thousand inbox messages, and 500 are 
"Tech-Assist" as a "subject" then this sort of defeats the purpose. We 
/know It's techassist.
/Can this group name maybe be second so the email can sort correctly? Or 
not in subject line? It would be nice if there were a group of 
"Apex","Broksonic",Crosley",etc. in stead of two hundred "tech-Assist".
If you disagree, hit "D" for "delete"
Doesn't matter, as I would never leave this forum anyway,unless handcuffed.
