I hate myself for replying to this. I just wanted to make a quick note to
bring it to attention. I somehow knew that someone was going to say that is
makes it "easier".

Ever hear of filters or rules? ;) That's the easiest.

Now for an extremely dorky comment: Placing "[Samba]" in the subject header
increases the amount of data traversing the internet. How many subscribed
Samba users? I'm sure well over 10,000. How many postings to the list in a
day? You do the math. =)
