> @eviltrout can you implement a configurable substitution scheme string for email titles this week including {category}, {sitename}, {topictitle}, etc? Just the title of notification emails should be configurable in this manner.

> [@Emails are not threaded in Outlook 2013](https://meta.discourse.org/t/emails-are-not-threaded-in-outlook-2013/16501):
