We’ve just hit this problem, after migrating an email alias to Discourse, and having a few users confused by the subject line reading, for instance: `[PM] Test for Discourse` - it would be prefereable to have that as: `[Reps Leadership] Test for Discourse`. (Where `Reps Leadership` is the full name of the group).

I propose adding an option under the existing custom incoming email address option to `Set %{optional_pm} to group full name` (or clearer words to that effect, if anyone has them).

_pr-welcome_?
