hello,

it is clutching at straws a bit, isn't it?
Your message is very useful to me though - I'm
currently testing a new system where subscribers will
get [test] in the subject line!

one person has already told me they're not succeeding
with it, so I'll check their circumstances and
probably use a different prefix in my system!

thanks a lot,
lee
