Description kelvine 2004-04-30 09:47:27 UTC 
Hi,

I noticed from the following web page that some Subject fields for links 
contain the text "[moderated]".

http://www.openoffice.org/contact.html

Whilst this initially looks like a good idea, it has two side effects that 
need to be considered.

Because there is default text in the subject, the user is no longer prompted 
for a subject. The email packages I know would prompt the user if they were to 
leave the subject blank. 

I checked around 900 posts using a News Reader and found 47 (including 15 
posts and replies) had no meaningful subject as a result (just [moderated] or 
Re:[Moderated] etc), or around 5%. 

It also breaks some News Reader software, which in all fairness is the fault 
of the software in question. Normally having the user enter their subject has 
meant I have never seen this bug/feature in many years of usage.

IMHO this should be reconsidered.

I hope this feedback is of use.

Regards

Kelvin
