"Re: Your Mail" is the default subject inserted by Pine (and presumably
some other mailers) when the mail being replied has *no* subject. It'd
be nice if everyone supplied a subject when they originate a post, but
not because "Re: Your Mail" causes confusion between list and personal
traffic--this is something a competent mail reader should be telling you
clearly, regardless of the subject.
Pine puts a "+" next to my personal mail, and it gives me the option
of receiving things like list traffic into files other than my inbox.
