OK, clearly @eviltrout has this in hand, so I’ll leave this alone for now (contact me if I can help). Hopefully my comments at [Email subject configuration options](https://meta.discourse.org/t/email-subject-configuration-options/16530) and/or my pull request code with adding the “Re:” are useful.

I would add to please include with the configurable subject lines the option to include the “Re:” in replies, which I am pretty sure is part of the requirement for Mail.app to thread properly (stupid though that may be).

Also, with the addition of a List-Id header, there is no real necessity for the [Site Title] in the subject line, which makes the option of just using a subject with just the [category] much more appealing.

Thanks!
