I also do not like the extra prefixes. It is easy to organize the messages
from different lists in separate mailboxes (at least in my Linux machine)
so that there is no need to identify the list one message belongs by
its message. Besides that, the subjects would get  more difficult to
be quicly read looking when scanning the mailbox to choose what to
read.
