I usually don't have any trouble from the context of the messages until today
when someone posted a link to the Cygnus site (for a mac port of the gnu 
compilers).
I also subscribe to the Cygwin list, and they don't use a subject line tag 
either.
For a moment I actually had to stop and think. Ouch!

Hopefully, this is an isolated occurrence, but if it isn't, I'll have to start
using Eudora's filters.
