Yes, I have seen Subject lines with the single "]", but this thread
didn't (in my email client anyway) have that problem.
Seems that the root of the problem might be use of the ":" at all...
what if the convention was spec'd as:  "Subject contains [EE] tag",
and forget about the ":"?
I get an awful lot of email, and a significant amount from the PICLIST
shows up in my main inbox, rather than having been "sortable" into
other folders per tag.  There's got to be a robust way to do this, I'd
like to think!
