I certainly hope not. It leads to hideously ugly subject lines which
only get longer and longer as the prefix (and various forms of "re:",
"RE:" and "Re:") are prepended to each other.
If you cannot handle the flow of mail that you now receive, I recommend
using one of the excellent mail filtering programs -- such as elm's
"filter", "procmail", or "zfilter". Any or all of these make it possible
for you to handle large quantities of mail, and will alleviate the
need to inflict what is, IMHO, a silly convention, on the rest of us.
