Mailman messages are getting a TAG in some email clients.....how????
So I know about the setting "Anonymous list" but regardless of that setting some email clients put the list name in [] when it displays messages in your inbox. Does anyone know how email clients are doing this? I have users who email clients do not do this, and was wondering if it is a setting in their client or just not possible.
Here is a link to an image showing the tag for a list called TEST6 https://imgur.com/a/7VyJtsD

This looks like Mailman adding 'Subject prefix', so all list mail will have this prefix added to the Subject:. So the question isn't how mail clients are adding it, but rather why do some mail clients suppress it.

Thanks, so with that info I was able to dig around and confirm it is the "Subject prefix" that is being displayed. Not sure why some clients display it and others do not, but that will be for the end user to talk to their email team about cause it is not a mailman issue.

I think the simple answer is that some mobile mail clients don't show the subject line by default, you have to click to show it explicitely. That users just don't see that.
