That's the beauty of regular expressions.  My suggestions was/is to
apply it to subject lines which optionally start with some
non-whitespace (to accomodate "Re:" and similar) followed by
whitespace.  Then, "offlist", either directly after the whitespace or
as the first element.  Basically, offlist as the first or second word
in the subject line.

It's hard to put into english - /^(\S+\s+)?OFFLIST/i is a much easier
way to put it.  Well, IMHO it's more clear.

Anyway, I intentionally re-subjected the thread with offlist farther
into the subject so that wouldn't happen.

As far as whether or not it's possible, sounds like Dan may have it
under control.  All I know is that it's possible in theory, and how
I'd do it on *my* mail server.  What level MIT gives James et. al.
access to is beyond me... ;)
