GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 204596
subject line when forwarding too long

When you forward a message, it puts the name, and e-mail address of the original sender in the subject field, along with the original subject. This IMHO is too much info on the subject line. I propose it be changed, or be configurable. A couple possibilites: "[Fwd: subject here]", or "subject here (fwd)" The former being the method used by Netscape, the latter Pine.
fixed in CVS
