Agreed.
There will be 2 new configuration variables:
Modify Subject = yes or no (or 1 or 0 or true or false or....)
Subject Text = {SPAM?}
If you set "modify subject" positive, then the text in "subject text" will
be put on the front of the subject line of the message (followed by a
single space, so it looks nice).
That sound okay for everyone?
