I understand the technical motivation behind this. Frankly if the e-mails are filtered into a folder they will stay there unread forever. I like to pick e-mails based on their subject and list for reading. If this change remains without [gnuradio-] preamble I need to find a way to easily identify the list. This seems a let's bring in technology to make life even more complex.

You're probably right, but I have to use the canine mailer with a flat view on my phone due to screen limitations, and I suppose some other people do as well.
For normal desktop view it's not such a big deal.

Hi everyone,
FYI, here is the general announcement of and motivation for the changes:https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/savannah-hackers-public/2019-06/msg00018.html

Adrian Musceac:I have to agree with Bogdan, it is standards complying but really annoying.
I receive email from 10 - 15 lists and this one is the only one not altering the subject.
The recommended way is to use List-Id, To, and Cc.
In Thunderbird, for instance, this is very easy to get via
Tools --> Message Filters
Then match "List-Id contains discuss-gnuradio.gnu.org" and move emails
to a separate directory.
Your 10-15 other mailing lists will likely already provide a proper
List-Id for many years. Consider that they have the same problem with
DKIP and, maybe, switch to (the standard complying) use of List-Id in
the future, too.
Cheers,
nicolas
