In the last couple of days soething has been adding "[Marketing Mail]

[Marketing Mail] Re: [GMF] Weird headers
Has anyone else experienced this? Is it Pegasus doing it?
Whatever it is, it is excessively annoying, because it makes every
reply seem like a new thread, and pushes significant words of the end
of the line.
No, it is not Pegasus Mail fault but either your mail server or
message sender. Anyways, Pmail has a way to handle this nuisance.
There's a control file named PREFIX.PM where one can put patterns to
handle Subject strings. You will need to use a plain text editor to
edit this file that may be in the working directory (?:\PMAIL
\PROGRAMS) or user's mailbox directory (?:\PMAIL\MAIL\USER).
At the beginning of the file you will find instructions on how to use
text patterns or regular expressions, including extended notation
regexes that start with a tilde and end with /h and are much
powerful. Below is a list of both that may handle any case. You'll
see some redundancy but that won't be a problem.

These patterns DO NOT remove Subject contents, only it will instruct
Pmail to ignore those when sorting by Subject line. It will though
remove them when replying the message.
