Suggestions for New Posting Notification Email

Asylum Feedback/Support

Audio Asylum feedback, support and feature wish list.

Some recommendations for the new posting notification messages being sent out:
It would be nice to be able to identify a new posting notification from the asylum. Like many people, I run about a 1000 different email filters in my mail client (Outlook Express), but the emails I get cannot be identified. This is for two reasons: a) The FROM address used is the actual inmate's if they're logged in and have an address on file. And b) The subject is different depending on the forum in which the message was posted.
My suggestion would be to tag the subject line, as commonly done by many mailing listservs. Something like
[audioasylum] New Digital Drive Post
I think I'd also dispense with placing the posting subject into the email subject, sinse they can be changed by the user and also can be so long. Place a Subject: line in the email itself.
Minor point, but messages should be word-wrapped to less than 80 columns.
Also minor, but HTML should be removed from user names, rather than seeing
