[plug] Just a proposal.... Linux-OT

[I am the LinuxAlien]

Maybe if people could just put a [OT] tag in there messages (and not tags 
like [OT verry] and so on) then it is easy to set up a filter like i have 
that marks them as read and puts them in a separate mail box. it is to hard 
to define a filter for this if the [OT] tag becomes things like [still OT] 
and so on. Maybe if the filter is set up to filter OT] or [OT then there is 
room for more descriptive subject lines.
