Hi

Well, that is probably not a good idea w.r.t. current DKIM / DMARC
movement - modifying subject may lead to break DKIM signature and
rejecting the mail in some circumstances.

Generally, the proper way is to identify mails from mailing lists by their
List-ID header, which, as i checked now, is missing here and should be
added.
