Please Change the Email Template

-

I follow (used to follow) about 15 forums here by e-mail. Every message emailed to me, and I maintain special mailboxes for each one.

With the old forums, the Subject of posts to the InDesign forum would appear like so in my email program's summary window:

The screen shot shows how I was able to read most of the Subject line, and how I was able to Sort Threads (by Option/Alt-clicking) to read the ones I was interested in (those are the ones highlighted in blue).

In the new forum software, here's how they look in my email program:

Do you see the problem? Because the forum software's email template preprends "[InDesign General Discussion] New Message: "" to every single message subject, and my summary window has a limit on the # of characters in the Subject field, I'm only getting the first 10 or so characters from the actual subject of the forum threads.

The only way I can see full subjects is to double-click on an individual message to open it in its own window. But I don't have enough time in the day to double-click on every email from the forum to see if it's a subject I'm interested in or can help the poster out with a reply,.

Also you can see I've tried to sort the thread "Text Disapp" but since the template adds "New Message:" then the program can't catch the original post of the thread. (The program is smart enough to ignore the stuff in brackets at the beginning, and the "Re:" as well.) Compare this to the first screen shot where it gathered the original post and all the replies with a simple Option/Alt-click on any of them.

My request is that the email template used by the forum software be changed:

1. If you must include the name of the forum in the subject, use a short form of it, like [ID-General], a common feature on other forums I subscribe to.
   
2. Don't include the text "New Message: ". If it comes in by email, it's a new message, isn't it?
3. Don't enclose the actual subject line in quotes. It's superfluous.
