RE: [NewDVD] Spider Man deluxe edition
etc...

It would be great if you could add a setting in the gateway setup that would allow the user to specify the subject phrase (eg, [NewDVD]) and then strip that from the subject text so that it doensn't show up in the title of every post. Also, even more importantly, have a check box that would allow us to only import message that has the subject phrase. This would allow us to filter out messages that are not actually mailing list messages.

2. Every mailing list message that I get has the same text in the footer. It would be great if there was a setting somehwere where I could specify this footer text (its over 13 lines!) and have it stripped before importing the message.

Thanks, this hack is really useful for me!

1. Doesn't mailing lists add prefix to any messages posted to it? The two type of lists I have admined do. they are sympa and mailman.

2. I consider it rude to strip the footers. The lists attach them for a purpose, either advertising or rules. They should be presented as they are received in an email mail box. If the list adds 13 lines of footer to the messages, perhaps the subscribers can complain to the list owner to have it shrinked down.
